C Dm                  F  
        
Am                    G        (2x)

                      Dm                 F
He buried her heart still
                       Am                 G
He buried her on her own
            Dm                     F
By the cool ferns
                        Am                   G
In the rained on river bed

                    Dm                   F
He took her in his arms
                 Am                      G
He carried her ghost
              Dm                    F
Through grey stone fields
                   Am                G
He could feel her float

           C         F
She said, "I would die for you
 C        F
"I would die for you"
        Am
And it all came true
    G
It all came true

C Dm                  F  
Am                    G        

            Dm                    F
A love so dark
               Am                    G
Against that moon
               Dm                    F
With a silken cord
                Am                    G
She spoke too soon

           C        F
She said, "I would die for you
C        F
I would die for you"

                    Dm               F
When he first laid eyes
                Am                  G
It was like a curse
                        

                   Dm                 F
He felt his heart rise
                 Am                   G
And gravity in reverse
                   Dm                 F
Her eyes full of hope
                       Am                    G
Her voice full of mourning
                 Dm                    F
And her lips as red
                  Am                    G
As a shepherds warning

           C        F
She said, "I would die for you
 C        F
"I would die for you"
       Am
And it all came true
    G
It all came true

C Dm                  F  
Am                    G        (2x)
           
            Dm
He lay her down
                Am              G
In the gentle earth
                Dm                    F
And kissed her eyes closed
                Am              G
Like it didn't hurt

          Dm  F                    Am              G
Whisper, "I          would die for you
 Dm  F                Am              G
"I     would die for you"
 C        F
"I  would die for you"
C         F
"I  would die for you"
Dm  F                              
"I     would die for you"
Am 
And it all came true
G
It all came true
