Scarlet Tide chords by Alison Krauss

Intro: C C! C! C x2


    C        F    C
When I recall his parting words

      C     F
Must I accept his fate

   G    C      F      G
Or take myself far from this place

        C      F     C
I thought I heard a black bell toll

      C     F
A little bird did sing

 G       C
Man has no choice

    F     G    C
When he wants every thing




    C     G         C
We'll rise above the scarlet tide

    C              F
That trickles down through the mountain

    C       F    G     C
And separates the widow from the bride



       C     F    C
Man goes beyond his own decision

      C         F
Gets caught up in the mechanism

    C           G
Of swindlers who act like kings

       C      F
And brokers who break everything

       C       F    C
The dark of night was swiftly fading

           F
Close to the dawn of day

 F       C         G      C
Why would I want him just to lose him again
