[Verse 1]
Am             E        Dm             Am
From the dusty Mesa her looming shadow grows
Am            E               Dm         Am
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote
    C
She twines her spines up slowly
  G
Towards the boiling sun
    Dm
And when I touched her skin
   F                       Am
My fingers ran with blood

[Verse 2]
Am             E            Dm             Am
In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
Am             E                Dm               Am
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
    C                              G
And strange hunger haunted me, the looming shadows danced
  Dm                                F                      Am
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt a trembling hand

[Bridge]
Am                 E
When the last light warms the rocks
   Dm                  Am
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Am                 E       Dm             Am
Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones

[Verse 3]
    C
And rise with me forever
 G
Across the silent sand
        Dm
And the stars will be your eyes
        F                     Am
And the wind will be my hands
