[Verse 1]
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
In the cold of the evening, they used to gather,
A F#m G Bm
Neath the stars in the meadow, circled near the old oak tree,
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
At the times appointed hmm by the seasons,
F#m G Bm Bm7
Of the earth, and the phases of the moon.
[Verse 2]
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
In the center, often stood a woman,
A G Bm
Equal with the others, respected for her worth,
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
One of the many we call the witches,
F#m G Bm
The healers, the teachers, of the wisdom of the earth.
[Verse 3]
Bm A G Bm
People grew in the knowledge she gave them,
F#m G Bm Bsus2 Bm
Herbs to heal their bodies, smells to make their spirits whole,
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7
Hear them chanting healing incantations,
A G Bm
Calling for the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song.
[Chorus]
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bsus2 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 4]
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
There were those that came to power, through domina—tion,
F#m F#m7 G Bm Bsus2 Bm
They were bonded in their worship of the savior on a cross,
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
They sought control over other people,
F#m G Bm
Demanding allegiance to the church of Rome.
[Verse 5]
Bsus2 Bm A G Bm
And the Pope, commenced the inquisition,
F#m A G Bm Bsus2 Bm
B war against those women, for the powers they do wean,
Bsus4 Bm
In this holocaust, in this century of evil,
F#m G Bm
How many were tortured, persecuted, for delight.
[Chorus]
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bsus2 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 6]
Bm Bsus2 Bm Bm7 Bm
Now the earth is a witch, and we still burn her,
A F#m G Bm Bsus2 Bm
Stripping her down with mining, and the poison of our wars,
Bm A F#m Bm
Still to us, the earth is a healer, a teacher, and a mother,
F#m G Bm
B weaver of a web, that keeps us all alive.
[Bridge]
Bm A F#m Bm7 Bm
She gives us the vision to see through the cha--os,
F#m G Bm
She gives us the courage, it is our will to survive.
[Chorus]
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm Bm7 Bm
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
