The Crane Wives – The Crooked The Cradle (Guitar)

        Am
There's blood in the water

        C
There's blood in the water

    G                       F
The quiet are restless, the silent are still

    Am
I'm nobody's daughter

    C        F
I'm nobody's daughter

   G                    Am                 N.C.
My enemies crawl, we're alone with the kill

   F
If mercy's abound

        C
I'll be safe, I'll be sound

        Am                       G
And the devil won't know all the love I just couldn't let go

F
I won't pretend

   C
My season won't end

      Am
But I pray

                          G                                         Am
When it's done, when it's through, I'll have something left for you

    Am
The noble are weary

    C
The noble are weary

     G                         F
This cradle still burns like a hole in my chest

    Am
Can anyone hear me?

    C
Can anyone hear me?

    G                         Am               N.C.
The crooked are smiling, they know me the best

   F
If mercy's abound

        C
I'll be safe, I'll be sound

        Am                       G
And the devil won't know all the love I just couldn't let go

F
I won't pretend

   C
My season won't end

      Am
But I pray

                          G                                         F
When it's done, when it's through, I'll have something left for you

                                                      G   G
And the devil won't know all the love I just couldn't let go

F
I won't pretend

   C
My season won't end

      Am
But I pray

                          G                                         Am N.C.
When it's done, when it's through, I'll have something left for you
