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