[Chorus 1]
E Don't interrupt the sorrow. Darn right. In flames our prophet witches. Be polite F A room full of glasses G He says, "Your notches, liberation doll" E And he chains me with that serpent to that Ethiopian wall
A E A
[Verse 1]
E Anima rising. Queen of Queens A Wash my guilt of Eden. Wash and balance me F G Anima rising. Uprising in me tonight E She's a vengeful little goddess with an ancient crown to fight
[Verse 2]
E Truth goes up in vapors. The steeples lean A Winds of change patriarchs. Snug in your bible belt dreams F G God goes up the chimney. Like childhood Santa Claus E The good slaves love the good book. A rebel loves a cause

[Verse 3]
E I'm leaving on the 1:15. You're darn right A Since I was seventeen. I've had no one over me. He says F G "Anima rising- So what- E Petrified wood process. Tall timber down to rock!"
[Chorus 2]
E Don't interrupt the sorrow. Darn right. He says, "We walked on the moon, You be polite" F Don't let up the sorrow . Death and birth and death and birth and death and birth G He says, "Bring that bottle kindly . And I'll pad your purse- E I've got a head full of quandary. And a mighty, mighty, mighty thirst"
A E A
[Verse 4]
E Seventeen glasses. Rhine wine A Milk of the Madonna. Clandestine F G He don't let up the sorrow. He lies and he cheats E It takes a heart like Mary's these days . When your man gets weak
