Chords with lyrics
Dm G
Was it you 'mid the fire and the ember?
Dm G
Were you there to bedevil and beguile?
Dm G
See, your face wasn't quite as I remember
Dm G
But I know that wicked shape to your smile.
Dm G
Bury me as it pleases you lover
Dm G
At sea or deep within the catacomb
Dm G
But these bones never rested while living
Dm G
So how can they stand to languish in repose?
G Dm
He has thrown down the cavalry as gravel sinks
G Dm G Dm
And as the stone founders underneath the sundered sea of red and reed
G Dm
The shadow of Hades is fading
G Dm F G
For he has cast down Leviathan, the tyrant, and the horse and rider
G Dm
Where is your rider?
G Dm
Where is your rider?
G Dm
He will hold with all of his might the armies of night
G Dm
Still as boulders laid to the side till we pass by
G Dm
He has hoisted out of the mire every child
G Dm
So lift your voice with timbrel and lyre
G G G
"We will abide, we will abide, we will abide"
