C     D               A
It is time to say farewell

C       D               A
Now the black horse has come

C         D                     A
And it's time to lay your guns down

    G          D            A
And raise your hands to the sun

C     D              A
With all your arrows broken

C         D             A
Your fate sealed with a kiss

C                D       A
They've gathered all the suspects

G           D             A
But there's one that they missed
[Chorus]
E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

E          A         D
Under them darkening sky

E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

C                      A
Crying when I looked behind
[Verse 2]
C       D        A
Nothing left but dust

C       D         A
And the narrowing way

C           D         A
Now there's no one to trust

G       D            A
And you like it that way

C      D            A
Like a snake in the water, yeah

A
That stays underneath

A
Ready to poison

G      D         A
From between her teeth
[Chorus]
E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

E          A         D
Under them darkening sky

E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

C                      A7
Crying when I looked behind

A7
Hear her cry, I can hear her cry
[Bridge]
D          C   D   C
 Oh, yeah, yeah

D
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

D
Oh
[Guitar Solo] A D A D E D E7 A D [Chorus]
E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

E          A         D
Under them darkening sky

E   A      D
She held a wilted rose

C                      A7
Crying when I looked behind
[Outro] A7
