Verse 1:
E5    Cmaj7
  Her skin glowed green and blue
Asus2        Cmaj7               E5
  The starry sky dimmed by fiery hues
         Cmaj7                    Asus2
My white dress blew in midnight's view
             N.C.
Of the world reborn, begun anew

Em             Cmaj7              Asus2
  Two thousand years and twenty more
               Cmaj7               E5
And she looked beautiful as ever before
       Cmaj7                      Asus2
As she pushed me down into the warm
      B7                         B7/13-
Water deep below my clothes were torn


Pre-Chorus
Em           C
  Lilith you siren
A               C
  How could you do this to me?
Em           C
  Lilith I'm dyin'
A               B7
  Why won't you set me free?



Em                             C
  I tried to scream but lilies clouded my mind
A                            C
  The petals softly floating into my eyes
Em                            C
  I felt your fingers slowly crawl up my spine
A                            B7
  We didn't have to sink for you to be mine


Verse 2:
Em    Cmaj7
  Her eyes were as red as dawn
Asus2    Cmaj7
  As she held me down under the pond
E5          Cmaj7
  Fireworks filled the sky beyond
Asus2         Bsus4             Em/B
  I heard the cheers from above the lawn

Em     Cmaj7
  Soft hands brushed through my thighs
Asus2      Cmaj7                     E5
  You were evil everyone else had realized
              Cmaj7                             Asus2
Thought I was different thought I'd save your soul
                     B7                        B7/13-
Guess you can't save what isn't half of a whole


Pre-Chorus
Em           C
  Lilith you siren
A               C
  How could you do this to me?
Em           C
  Lilith I'm dyin'
A               B7
  Why won't you set me free?



Em                             C
  I tried to scream but lilies clouded my mind
A                            C
  The petals softly floating into my eyes
Em                                C
I felt your hands as they wrapped around my neck
A                             B7
When did our love become this shallow shipwreck?


Bridge:
Em                            C
Two thousand years and twenty more and I thought
      Asus2                  C
I was weaker than I had ever been before
        Em                       C
But the moonlight's rays hit the water below
           Asus2                       C
and it was now or never to swim to the garden and oh,
        Em                      C
Did she push and pull tryin' to get me to drown
        Asus2                      C
But the lilies in my mind began to run aground
     Em                          C
As I gripped and dragged myself along the dirt
        Asus2                              C
I turned back to face the girl I loved for all of my hurt
         Em                      C
Said ?my dear this is it, I have got to go?
        Asus2                       B
And she faded in the deep and murky water below


Pre-Chorus
Em           C
  Lilith you siren
A               C
  How could you do this to me?
Em           C
  Lilith I'm cryin'
A              B7
  My pain will stay with me

Em           C
  Lilith you siren (I tried to scream but lilies clouded my mind)
A             C
  You were so cruel and so mean (The petals softly floating into my eyes)
Em           C
  Lilith I'm tryin' (I felt your hands as they wrapped around my neck)
A              B7
  To love life now that I'm free


End:
Em
