[Verse 1]
[Em]All [B]the [Em]folk[B]s h[Em]ad gathered[B]
to see [Em]what was in [B]store
Another [E]test [Em]of my s[B]trength,
a new [Em]chain had been [E]forged[B]
But [E]something in its [Em]shimmer
made me sense a trap
[E]A s[B]trange sort of shiver
cracked up my back
It was [Em]roots of stones and step of a cat
[B]Breath of fish, strange things like that
[F#]I said I won[Am]'t fight that
There's something tricky here
I [D]won't fight that
Let me be very clear
I [G]won't fight that
Won't step in[B]to this run [C]alone
[G]I'm [C]needing [Am]one brave act
That's all I'm [Em]asking here
[Am]Just one b[D]rave act
I need a volunteer to [G]be a
sort of guarantee
Place your hand [D]here please
[C]Oh, oh, oh, [Em]oh
[B]Ooh
[Em]Hey!
[B]Ooh
Hey!
The [Em]only one to offer
[B]was my [Em]trusted [B]friend
From [Em]him, the only nourishment
[B]I'd[Em] been giv[B]en
But his [E]step was heavy
[B]and his tou[Em]ch was light
His [B]eye [F#]unsteady an[B]d
he reeked of fright
The [Em]deal was [B]sealed, the [Em]fet ter placed
An[B]d as I feared, this chain won't break
But no, I [Am]won't bite back
Resist a little longer, [D]won't bite back
But still I wonder what [G]sort of woman
[D]Should I [G]be the one who be[B]trays me
[C]Oh, oh, oh, [B]oh[Em][B][Em]
[B][Am]
[Em]They[Am] locked me up
[C]in a desolate [D]place,[A]
[D]his hand in my stomach,
[G]their sword in [D]my fac[G]e.[D]
And as [C]I howled a[G]nd c[C]ursed them,
[B]the riv[Am]er flo[E]wed from my [D]spi[Am]t.[Em]
It was [D]expectation,
and I wouldn't deliver [G]it.[D][G]
[D]They [G]pro[C]phesied tha[G]t I would
bring [C]death and calam[Am]ity,[Em]
[E]but [Am]they were doomed
[Em]by what they c[B]ouldn't se[Em]e,
[B]by [Em]their own d[F#]eeds[C#m],
[F#m]through their mistreat [C#m]ment o[B]f me.
[Em]A word of advice,
[Am]if y[C]ou w[Am]ant to
keep your [Em]monsters at bay,
don't score [Am]them with cruelty
that they'll feel compelled
[B]to repay.
[Em]Someday a great poet will say,
everything [F#]that lives is holy,
and what was [B]done to and through me,
nothing but a story.
I said [Am]I won't bite [C]back.
I said [B]I won't bite d[D]own.[Em][F#m]
[B]I said I w[G]on't
[B]But here we [C]are[B]
[Em]Ooh [G]Hey![B][Em][B][F#]
[B][Em][B][Em][B][F#][B]
My [Em]mother was a giant
and my father a [B]trickster
But I wasn't raised by them,
not that nature
I [Em]wish you wouldn't bait me
[B]with the [Em]same old [B]brush
I didn't even care for my siblings much
My [Em]brother was a snake,
my sister a hellcat
[B]The blood is thicker than water,
you [F#]prove [B]that
My [Em]brother was a snake,
my sister a hellcat
[B]The blood is thicker than water,
you prove [Em]that
Said I won't [B]wait
Said I won't [Em]wait
Said I won't [B]wait
Said I won't [Em]wait
I won't [B]wait
I'm on [Em]fire
I'm [B]on fire
I'm on fire
