She got stuck in the Sailor's Knot
    A minorAm      D MajorD
And it dragged her around

But now she's upright, out of our sight

That took our Desdemona home again

Esus4Esus4             E MajorE    A minorAm               D MajorD
This time she looked different and it wasn't just the shackles and chains
Esus4Esus4
Right in the spot heart used to be
