Ankle Bone chords by Birdtalker

Intro

C  x4


verse 1
C
She walks alone across the burning sand
F
No song in her ears
C
No, she won't find another mother now
F
There is no other here
Dm                             C
She wanders onward never to arrive
Dm                                     C
The naked orphan with nothing more to hide

C  x4


verse 2
C
Calls like a pagan to the angry sun
F
Wincing with tired eyes
C
Isn't there anything worth searching for?
F
Is it all compromise?
Dm                                   C
She has no saviour and nothing to decide
Dm                           C
Spinning onward, a circular sky

Dm  x2
F   x2

The desert is her mother
