♫ Verse:
Em Bm
The owl of Zaragoza
Am
Is sitting by my window
G B
Daring me out
Em Bm
As I sit there by my piano
Am
I let spiders take my hands
G B
Daring the words to entwine
Em Bm
Why's there so much loving?
Am
Why’s there so much trouble?
G B
The rhetorical snake replies
Em Bm7
It's just the song sung for the river
Am
So don't be scared, don’t be shy
G B
Don't even ask why

calm ♫ Verse:
Em G
In my dream the was a mechanical bull
C
I watched it on a screen
Em
And it was blocking me from entering my life
Am G
In the next scene, there was a rain of arrows
F#m
And the matador and the bull
B
Both got drenched in those fine diagonal lines
Em
I was director, I was matador
G
And the bull was my name
C
When I woke, I was drenched
Em
From the storm where I came
Am G
As the sweat on my body got cold
F#m
I started shivering and shivering
B
And shivering and shivering
Em Em Am Am Am D
And I-ia-ia-ia-ia
Em
I know where that one goes
Em Am Am
I know where that one flies
Am D Em
And I'II follow it tonight
♫ Chorus:
C
One morе for this life
G
One more for thе show
D
One more for the sky
B Em
And the fire down below
C
One more for the night
G
Where the purple lilacs grow
D
One more for the dead
B Em
One more for the road
C
One more for the eyes
G
Of the spirits in this room
D
One more for the future
B Em
That's coming for us soon
C
One more for the fight
G
And the never-ending blows
D
One more for your love
B Em
One more for the road Published:
