[Verse 1]
E                B7sus4     Asus2           E
'Twas in another lifetime   One of toil and blood
                     B7sus4       A
When blackness was a virtue   The road was full of mud
E                  B7sus4         A
I came in from the wilderness   A creature void of form
E                B7sus4         Asus2            E
Come in she said I'll give ya   Shelter from the storm

[Verse 2]
E                  B7sus4      Asus2        E
And if I pass this way again   You can rest assured
                  B7sus4            A
I'll always do my best for her   On that I give my word
     E                   B7sus4                 A
In a world of steel-eyed death and men  Who are fighting to be warm
E                B7sus4         Asus2            E
Come in she said I'll give ya   Shelter from the storm

[Verse 3]
E                B7sus4                     Asus2       E
Not a word was spoke between us   There was little risk involved
              B7sus4                   A
Everything up to that point   Had been left unresolved
E             B7sus4                A
Try imagining a place    Where it's always safe and warm
E                B7sus4         Asus2            E
Come in she said I'll give ya   Shelter from the storm

[Verse 4]
E                     B7sus4      Asus2         E
I was burned out from exhaustion  Buried in the hail
                B7sus4       A
Poisoned in the bushes   And blown out on the trail
E             B7sus4       A
Hunted like a crocodile    Ravaged in the corn

E                B7sus4         Asus2            E
Come in she said I'll give ya   Shelter from the storm

[Verse 5]
E          B7sus4              Asus2            E
Suddenly I turned around   And she was standing there
                      B7sus4             A
With silver bracelets on her wrists  And flowers in her hair
E                      B7sus4          A
She walked up to me so gracefully  And took my crown of thorns
E                B7sus4         Asus2            E
Come in she said I'll give ya   Shelter from the storm

[Verse 6]
E                    B7sus4    Asus2                  E
Now there's a wall between us  somethin' there's been lost
                    B7sus4   A
I took too much for granted got my signals crossed
E                     B7sus4         A
Just to think that it all began on a long forgotten morn
E                      B7sus4   Asus2            E
Come in she said  I'll give you shelter from the storm

[Verse 7]
E                        B7sus4             Asus2          E
Well the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
                   B7sus4             A
But nothing really matters much it's doom alone that counts
E                B7sus4        A
And the one-eyed undertaker he blows a futile horn
E                      B7sus4   Asus2            E
Come in she said  I'll give you shelter from the storm

[Verse 8]
E                  B7sus4         Asus2           E
I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
                 B7sus4       A
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love
E                    B7sus4              A
Do I understand your question then is it hopeless and forlorn
E                      B7sus4   Asus2            E
Come in she said  I'll give you shelter from the storm


[Instrumental]

[Verse 9]
E                   B7sus4   Asus2               E
In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
                   B7sus4          A
I bargained for salvation and they gave me a lethal dose
E               B7sus4        A
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn
E                      B7sus4   Asus2            E
Come in she said  I'll give you shelter from the storm


[Instrumental]

[Verse 10]
E                    B7sus4                  Asus2              E
Well I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
               B7sus4        A
Beauty walks a razor's edge someday I'll make it mine
E                    B7sus4                 A
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
E                      B7sus4   Asus2            E
Come in she said  I'll give you shelter from the storm
