[Verse 1]
[Am]The [F]door[Am] it [F]open[Am]ed slowly[F]
My [Am]father he came [F]in
I [G]was nine [F]years [E]old
He stood [Am]so tall a[F]bove me
His blue [Am]eyes they were shin[F]ing,
and [G]his voice was [F]very [E]cold
He [C]said, I've had a vision,
and you know I'm strong and holy
I must [D]do what [C]I've been [B]told
So he star[F]ted up the moun[Bb]tain,
I was [F]running, he [Bb]was walking
And his [F]axe [G]was made
of [A]gold[Am][F][Am][F]
Well [Am]the trees they got much smal[F]ler
And the [Am]lake laid its [F]mirror
We [G]stopped to drink [F]some [E]wine
Then he [Am]threw the bottle [F]over
And [Am]broke a [F]minute later
And he [G]threw his [F]hand on [E]mine
I [C]thought I saw an eagle
But it might have been a vulture
I [D]never could [C]de [B]cide
Then my [F]father built an [Bb]altar
He looked [F]swans behind his [Bb]shoulder
He knew [F]I w[G]ould not
[A]hide[Am][F][Am][F]
You [Am]build these al[F]tars now
To sac[Am]rifice these chil[F]dren
You must not [G]do it [F]any[E]more
The [Am]scheme is not a vision
[F]And you'll nev[Am]er have been tem[F]pted
By a [G]demon [F]or [E]a god
You [C]stand above them now
Your hatchet blunt and bloody
Were [D]not [C]there before
[B]When I lay[F] upon the mountai[Bb]n,
and [F]my father's hand
was trem[Bb]bling,
with the beau[F]ty [G]of [A]the [Am]world.
[F][Am][F][Am][F][Am][Dm][Am][F]
And [Am]if you call me [F]brother now
Forgive [Am]me if I inqu[F]ire
Just accord[G]ing [F]to [E]his plan
When [Am]it all comes do[F]wn to dust
I [Am]will kill you if [F]I must
I will [G]help you [F]if I [E]can
When [C]it all comes down to dust,
I will help you if I must
and I [D]will kill you [C]if I [B]get it
And [F]mercy on our [Bb]uniform,
[F]men of peace and [Bb]men of war
The pea[F]cock [G]spreads
[A]his [Am]fan[F][Am][F]
You
