Chords with lyrics
The Handsome Family- Far From Any Road
Intro: A minorAm
A minorAm E MajorE
From the dusty mesa
DmDm A minorAm
Her looming shadow grows
A minorAm E MajorE
Hidden in the branches
DmDm A minorAm
of the poison creosote
C majorC
She twines her spines up slowly
G+G
Towards the boiling sun
DmDm
And when I touched her skin
FF A minorAm
My fingers ran with blood
A minorAm E MajorE
In the hushing dusk
DmDm A minorAm
Under a swollen silver moon
A minorAm E MajorE
I came walking with the wind
DmDm A minorAm
To watch the cactus bloom
C majorC
And strange hands halted me,
G+G
The looming shadows danced
DmDm
I fell down to the thorny brush
FF A minorAm
And felt the trembling hands
A minorAm E MajorE
When the last light warms the rocks
DmDm A minorAm
And the rattlesnakes unfold
A minorAm E MajorE
Mountain cats will come
DmDm A minorAm
to drag away your bones
C majorC
And rise with me forever
G+G
Across the silent sand
DmDm
And the stars will be your eyes
FF A minorAm
