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