A5 G5 A5 G5 E5
The preacher said a prayer. Save every single hair on his head.
E5
He's dead.
A5 G5 A5 G5 E5
The minister of hate had just arrived too late to be spared.
E5
Who cared?
F5 G5 A5
The weaver in the web that he made!
The next verses are just the same:
The pilgrim wandered in, committing every sin that he could
So good..
The cardinal of grief, was set in his belief he'd be saved
From the grave.
The weaver in the web that he made!
The high priest took a blade, to bless the ones that prayed
And all obeyed.
The messenger of fear, is slowly growing nearer to the time
A sign.
The weaver in the web that he made!
Then:
B5 A5 B5 A5 F#5
A bishop rings a bell, a cloak of darkness fell across the ground
F#5
Without a sound.
B5 A5 B5 A5 F#5
The silent choir sing, and in their silence bring jaded sound
F#5
Harmonic ground.
G5 A5 B5
The weaver in the web that he made!
