[Verse 1]
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
In the cold of the evening, they used to gather,
G# Fm F# A#m
Neath the stars in the meadow, circled near the old oak tree,
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
At the times appointed hmm by the seasons,
Fm F# A#m A#m7
Of the earth, and the phases of the moon.
[Verse 2]
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
In the center, often stood a woman,
G# F# A#m
Equal with the others, respected for her worth,
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
One of the many we call the witches,
Fm F# A#m
The healers, the teachers, of the wisdom of the earth.
[Verse 3]
A#m G# F# A#m
People grew in the knowledge she gave them,
Fm F# A#m A#sus2 A#m
Herbs to heal their bodies, smells to make their spirits whole,
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7
Hear them chanting healing incantations,
G# F# A#m
Calling for the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song.
[Chorus]
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#sus2 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 4]
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
There were those that came to power, through domina—tion,
Fm Fm7 F# A#m A#sus2 A#m
They were bonded in their worship of the savior on a cross,
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
They sought control over other people,
Fm F# A#m
Demanding allegiance to the church of Rome.
[Verse 5]
A#sus2 A#m G# F# A#m
And the Pope, commenced the inquisition,
Fm G# F# A#m A#sus2 A#m
A# war against those women, for the powers they do wean,
A#sus4 A#m
In this holocaust, in this century of evil,
Fm F# A#m
How many were tortured, persecuted, for delight.
[Chorus]
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#sus2 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 6]
A#m A#sus2 A#m A#m7 A#m
Now the earth is a witch, and we still burn her,
G# Fm F# A#m A#sus2 A#m
Stripping her down with mining, and the poison of our wars,
A#m G# Fm A#m
Still to us, the earth is a healer, a teacher, and a mother,
Fm F# A#m
A# weaver of a web, that keeps us all alive.
[Bridge]
A#m G# Fm A#m7 A#m
She gives us the vision to see through the cha--os,
Fm F# A#m
She gives us the courage, it is our will to survive.
[Chorus]
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m A#m7 A#m
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
