Bb
She lays on the wall
 
watching the strangers drift away
           Bb    Ab
mid-day's ore--thick
 
with the sun of Arabia
     Bb             Ab
she surrenders her voices
Bb
they gather, on the wind
 
talkin, chanting, breathing
                C#-F-Bb-C#
into her body...yesterday
F - C# - (C#-Eb - E - F#) (walkup)
 
         Bb
Awakened beside
Ab                 Bb
the scent of burnt sugar--on the skin
             Ab
painting eyes--thick
Bb
with the color she brings in
Bb
oh, and sure and strong
when the lightning tumbles down
don't you frown
everything will be
in time for this evening
