Intro:
Em   C   Em   C

Verse:
        G                       Em
And her mouth was as red as the fresh fallen snow
    C                G     D
The day she told me again
     C            D           Em           C
How another man's love was as white as the raven
      Em       D            G
While mine was blacker than blood
     C            D           Em           C
How another man's love was as white as the raven
      Em       D            G
While mine was blacker than blood

Verse:
                            Em
And I asked if she knew for sure that the rain
       C                    G    D
In her eyes would never run dry
     C                 D            Em         C
'Til the flames of the sun run like ice in her veins
    Em        D           G
And froze the door to her heart
     C                 D            Em         C
'Til the flames of the sun run like ice in her veins
    Em        D           G
And froze the door to her heart

Verse:
                                  Em
And she told me the last time, as if for the first time
       C            G            D
If the world turns away from the sun
     C           D          Em        C
Then nothing and never will always be true
     Em           D       G
That she would forever be mine
     C           D          Em        C
Then nothing and never will always be true
     Em           D       G
That she would forever be mine

Instrumental:
Em    C    Em    C  G  Em  D  C

Verse:
      G                         Em
And I swear that the sun in her eyes turned to stone
    C                         G     D
Her dress was as white as the moon
    C              D            Em         C
The priest told me nothing, and no one was true
     Em           D       G
That she would forever be mine
    C              D            Em         C
The priest told me nothing, and no one was true
     Em           D       G
That she would forever be mine

Outro:
                  C           Em           D
Oh, the blackened sole of her small bright shoe
    C         D           Em         D          G
Has left it's mark in the long white hall of my heart
