[Intro 1]
[G][D][Am][Em]
[G][D][Am][Em]
[G][D][Am][Em]
[G][D][Am][Em]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Albatross [D]flying again,
[Am]after twenty years in [Em]a cage
Passes [G]over seas,
brings [D]a ghost to his knees
[Am]Feathers flocking into [Em]words
on a page
[G]Now I've had faith,
but I've [D]also had doubt
And [A]I've seen you slip[Am]ping slowly
in the ser[Em]pent's mouth
On [G]nights that never happened
Flight[D]s that were abandoned
[Am]Cut short like a throat, uninv[Em]ited to sing

[Verse 2]
As [Em]I walked in [D]the street,
where [A]you shuffled [B]your shoes
Staring [Em]up into wi[D]ndows,
sinking [A]down in[B]to blues
My [Em]soul and cigar[D]ette
were [A]signing [B]a truce
And [Em]it made me [D]feel for a mo[A]ment [B]or two

[Verse 3]
Like [G]a pilgrim in the holy [B]land
Like a pil[G]grim in the holy [B]land
Like a pil[G]grim in the holy [B]land
Clapping [G]dirt to a cloud with his hand
[F#]s

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][A][Am][Em]
[G][D][Am][Em]

[Verse 4]
[G]Lost tongue,
do you [D]know where it's [Am]been
Tasting poison [Em]and flesh
[G]Dragged back from death,
by [D]the calm of a breath
[Am]Taking in the fortress of a lov
[Em]er's caress
[G]Bloodthirsty saint,
with [D]the soul of a whore
[Am]Dancing in the garden where
your ba[Em]bies were born
[G]Feels full of ferina,[D]gentle Proserpina
[Am]Weeping nightly as [Em]we cling to her storm

[Verse 5]
As [Em]I walked in [D]the street,
where [A]you shuffled [B]your shoes
Staring [E]up into win[D]dows,
sinking [A]down in[B]to blues
My [E]soul and cigar[D]ette
were [A]signing [B]a truce
And it [E]made me [D]feel for a mo[A]ment or [B]two

[Verse 6]
Like a pil[G]grim in the holy [B]land
Like a pil[G]grim in the holy [B]land
Like a pil[G]grim in the holy [B]land
Clapping [G]dirt to a cloud with his hands
