Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][Em][F][C][G][C][Em][F][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Wrapped in the wings of [C]a spar[Em]row
[F]Beak is as sharp as an [C]arrow
[G]Sings in a whispering [C]whistle[Em]
[F]Sleeps in the ivy [C]and thistle
[G]Owls out swooping [C]and howling[Em]
[F]Deep in the midnight [C]a' prowling
[G]Mama the scream of
[Em]the eagle[C][Em]
[F]Threading my heart through
[C]the needle
[G]Threading the blood through
[C]the ap[Em]ple
[F]Sucking the juice from [C]the apple
[G]Eating the seeds of the [C]apple[Em]
[F]Bearing the tree of the [C]apple
[G]Trapped in the weeds like
[C]a scare[Em]crow
[F]Stuck to the wind [C]like [G]Velcro
Distantly hearing [C]the bell [Em]toll
[F]Warbling chime through [C]the meadow
[G]Mama the scream of the [C]eagle[Em]
[F]Threading my heart through
[C]the needle
[G]Threading the blood through the [C]apple[Em]
[F]Eve sucked the juice from the [C]apple
[G]Nakedly running [C]I saw [Em]her
[F]Boy chasing after [C]to stall her
I [G]wish I'd have spoken to [Em]call [C]her[Em]
Be[F]fore she found fabric [C]to shawl her
[G]Breasts bound and burdened
with [C]fiber[Em]
[F]Adam came trembling be[C]side her
And he said, he said
[G]"She has the poison in[C]side [Em]her
[F]She talks to snakes and [C]they guide her"

[Verse 2]
[G]She has the poison in[C]side [Em]her
[F]She talks to snakes and [C]they guide her
[G]She has the poison in[C]side [Em]her
[F]She talks to snakes and [C]they guide her
[G]She has the poison in[C]side [Em]her
[F]She talks to snakes and [C]they guide her
