A black crow standing
On a sea of shells
She's blessed by magic
And the sound of libery's bells
I'll raise the curfew
*
And set by her door
& Riff 1
She's been through this world before
the chords are the same for the second verse.
verse 3:
She's giving me questions
And quizzical looks
She tears up my papers
And burns all my books
They gave her nothing
*
She didn't already know
& Riff 1
She's getting ready to go
* means hold chord for 2 bars
the song repeats after this, with 2 on one off. meaning to say, the first set
of chords for 2 verses and then the second set of chords for the next (third)
