C#m
the fragile keep secrets gathered in pockets and they will
G#
sell them for nothing a cheap watch or locket that
E C#m
kind of gold washes off
C#m
and the sad act like lepers they stick to the shadows they long to
G#
ring bells of warning to tell of their coming so that the
E C#m
pure can shut their doors
C#m
the angry are animals senseless and savage they
G#
act without order in logical lapses they
E C#m
stain their mouths with blood
F#m C#m
so take my hand this barren land is alive tonight
F#m C#m
oh the corn has grown stalks that form a wall to hide
F#m C#m
the wind carries sounds that i can't see from beyond that line
B A G#
then the stalks begin to sway
C# B-A-G# C#m
oh stay with me arienette until the wolves are away
A-G# C#m A-G#
YUH!
C#m
well the wicked are vultures they bake in the canyons they
G#
circle in sunlight and wait for their victims to
E C#m
collapse and call to them
C#m
and the desperate are water they'll run down forever as they
G#
soak into silence and end up together in a
E C#m
dark and distant dark and distant place
F#m C#m
so dont leave me here with only mirrors watching me
F#m C#m
this house it holds nothing but the memories
F#m C#m
and the moon it leaves silver but never sleep
B A G#
and then the silver turns to gray
C# B-A-G# C#m
so stay with me arienette until the wolves are away
