Intro:
8 bars of E
Verse 1:
E Bm*
I was walking through the forest
E Bm* E
One cold and dreary morn
E Bm*
And my heart, sick with jealousy
E Bm* E
And memories I need no more
E Bm*
No I would never kill a man
E Bm* E
But I would do him harm
E Bm*
Knowing that you're there
E Bm* E
Lying in his arms
Break:
G, Bm, E, E, G, Bm, E, E (F, Am, Dsus2, Dsus2, F, Am, Dsus2, Dsus2)
Verse 2:
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
My flesh was ripped and torn
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
By the bramble and the thorn
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
I was lost but well prepared
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
To offer up my soul
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
Because the greater misery
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
Is to live with what I know
Break:
G, Bm, E, E, G, Bm, E, E (F, Am, Dsus2, Dsus2, F, Am, Dsus2, Dsus2)
Verse 3:
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
The moon concealed by April's storm
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
No bearing I could find
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
Until I fell into a clearing
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
And a road I recognized
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
I was far, far from my home
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
Further from her smile
E Bm* (Dsus2, Am)
Not sure if I would return
E Bm* E (Dsus2, Am, Dsus2)
Or just lay down and die
Break:
4 bars of E (Dsus2)
Chorus:
E G#m (Dsus2, F#m)
As I stood in Phaedra's meadow
C#m B A Am (Bm-A, G-Gm)
Well the dawn did break the sky

And from the highest up in heaven

The weaving star fell into my eye

And from the highest up in heaven

C#m B A Am (Bm-A, G-Gm)

The weaving star fell in my eye
