[Verse 1]
[Dm]What was it that stayed
my [Am]hand then?
With [Em]dagger held unsheathed,
[C]blade poi[G]nting in its sid[Dm]e
I'd been set [Am]upon by a predator
It was just [Em]looking for a meal,
[G]I saw ribs and fearful e[Dm]yes
What is it that stays my [Am]hand now?
With so [Em]much misery that [C]I could
[G]mercifully put ends [Dm]to
For that animal I let [Am]slink off into the undergrowth,
un[Em]scathed
Do I not fear death,
[G]but just pretend to?[F]

[Verse 2]
For it was starving, it was [Am]hungry
But had eyes too close to [G]let me
If you were easy [Am]to kill,
I would have [Dm]done [Am]it already

[Interlude 1]
[C][F]
[Dm]

[Verse 3]
Plagued by phantom [Am]noises
That [Em]that skeletal beast was [G]haunting
all [Dm]my steps
Questioning all my [Am]choices
With that [Em]dagger held unsheathed,
I felt [G]sick at my [F]contempt

[Verse 4]
For you were lonely, [Am]you were
like me
Like some outside force had [G]sent me
If I was easy to kill,
[Am]you would have done it already

[Interlude 2]
[Am][C][F]
[Am][C][F]
[Am]

[Verse 5]
You are at [C]my feet,
we're [G]by [Am]the fire[F]
You're a [Dm]gentle beast
[Am]and I'm [Dm]alive[Am]
You are at my feet,
[C]we're by [G]the[Am] fire[F]
You're a [Am]gentle,
purring beast and [Gsus2]I'm alive[Am]
You are at [C]my feet, we're [Am]by the fire
[F]You're a healthy, gen[Dm]tle,
purring [F]beast and [Dm]I'm [Am]alive[F][Am]
You are at my feet, [C]we're by the fire
[F]You're a healthy, gentle,
purring beast and [Dm]I'm [F]alive[Am]

[Verse 6]
You are at my [Am]feet, we're [C]by the fire
[F]You're a healthy, gentle,
purring beast, and I'm [Am]alive
You are at my feet,
[C]we're by the fire (like an outside force had[F] sent me?)
You're a gentle beast (if you were easy to kill,
I would have done it already)
