[Verses]
A# G# D# A#
I married Isis on the fifth day of May
G# D# A#
But I could not hold on to her very long
G# D# A#
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away
G# D# A# | A# | A# ||
For the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong.
A# G# D# A#
I came to a high place of darkness and light
G# D# A#
The dividing line ran through the center of town
G# D# A#
I hitched up my pony to a post on the right
G# D# A# | A# | A# ||
Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down.
A# G# D# A#
A# man in the corner approached me for a match
G# D# A#
I knew right away he was not ordinary
G# D# A#
He said "Are you looking for something easy to catch ?"
G# D# A#
I said "I got no money". He said "That ain't necessary".
A# G# C# A#
We set out that night for the cold in the North
G# D# A#
I gave him my blanket he gave me his word
G# D# A#
I said "Where are we going ?" He said "We'd be back by the fourth"
G# D# A#
I said "That's the best news that I've ever heard".
A# G# D# A#
I was thinking about turquoise I was thinking about gold
G# D# A#
I was thinking about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace
G# D# A#
As we rode through the canyons through the devilish cold
G# D# A#
I was thinking about Isis how she thought I was so reckless.
A# G# D# A#
How she told me that one day we will meet up again
G# D# A#
And things would be different the next time we wed
G# D# A#
If I only could hang on and just be her friend
G# D# A#
I still can't remember all the best things she said.
A# G# D# A#
We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice
G# D# A#
He said "There's a body I'm trying to find
G# D# A#
If I carry it out it'll bring a good price"
G# D# A#
It was then that I knew what he had on his mind.
A# G# D# A#
The wind it was howling and the snow was outrageous
G# D# A#
We chopped through the night and we chopped through the dawn
G# D# A#
When he died I was hoping that it wasn't contagious
G# D# A#
But I made up my mind that I had to go on.
A# G# D# A#
I broke into the tomb but the casket was empty
G# D# A#
There was no jewels no nothing I felt I'd been had
G# D# A#
When I saw that my partner was just being friendly
G# D# A#
When I took up his offer I must-a been mad.
A# G# D# A#
I picked up his body and I dragged him inside
G# D# A#
Threw him down in the hole and I put back the cover
G# D# A#
I said a quick prayer and I felt satisfied
G# D# A#
Then I rode back to find Isis just to tell her I love her.
A# G# D# A#
She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise
G# D# A#
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed
G# D# A#
I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes
G# A#
I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead.
A# G# D# A#
She said "Where ya been ?" I said "No place special"
G# D# A#
She said "You look different" I said "Well I guess"
G# D# A#
She said "You been gone" I said "That's only natural"
G# D# A#
She said "You gonna stay ?" I said "If you want me to, Yeah ".
A# G# D# A#
Isis oh Isis you mystical child
G# D# A#
What drives me to you is what drives me insane
G# D# A#
I still can remember the way that you smiled
G# D# A#
On the fifth day of May in the drizzling rain.
