F#m  (finish the bar with just the open E string)   repeat many times

           Bm                               F#m
And in the dawning of the day in late september
                Bm                       F#m
There came a weeping from outside my chamber door
           Bm                               F#m
Weary from fever I rose up looked out the elder
        Bm                       F#m
A Raven with a broken wing yet nothing more
F#m
          Bm                                 F#m
I turn my head the once and bird become a damsel
               Bm                            F#m
With lips of cherry, ivory skin and lustrous hair
             Bm                            F#m
Open the doorway wide and smile for her to enter
          Bm                       F#m
Not in my lifetime seen a beast so rare

F#m
                Bm                          F#m
Sweet thighs of ruin how I loved her, and I loved her
             Bm                              F#m
She muttered low and helped me to her infant breasts
         Bm                              F#m
Deliverance was long and strong as god's my witness
        Bm                             F#m
Babylon burning sorrow known with each caress

E               F#m
   And let the night in
E              F#m
   For you were broken
E            F#m
   Too ill to touch
E              F#m
             Too much

F#m
             Bm                           F#m
And with the medal Eguinal had done their duty
            Bm                          F#m
The morning glory lying awoke with duly low
              Bm                            F#m
I breathed my last the day the warning bell was knelling
                 Bm                                 F#m
She smoothed her feathers down and flew back out my window

[Chorus]
Solo  (E F#m)
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
