[Verse 1]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
In the cold of the evening, they used to gather,
G Em F Am
Neath the stars in the meadow, circled near the old oak tree,
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
At the times appointed hmm by the seasons,
Em F Am Am7
Of the earth, and the phases of the moon.
[Verse 2]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
In the center, often stood a woman,
G F Am
Equal with the others, respected for her worth,
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
One of the many we call the witches,
Em F Am
The healers, the teachers, of the wisdom of the earth.
[Verse 3]
Am G F Am
People grew in the knowledge she gave them,
Em F Am Asus2 Am
Herbs to heal their bodies, smells to make their spirits whole,
Am Am7 Am Am7
Hear them chanting healing incantations,
G F Am
Calling for the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song.
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Asus2 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 4]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
There were those that came to power, through domina—tion,
Em Em7 F Am Asus2 Am
They were bonded in their worship of the savior on a cross,
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
They sought control over other people,
Em F Am
Demanding allegiance to the church of Rome.
[Verse 5]
Asus2 Am G F Am
And the Pope, commenced the inquisition,
Em G F Am Asus2 Am
A war against those women, for the powers they do wean,
Asus4 Am
In this holocaust, in this century of evil,
Em F Am
How many were tortured, persecuted, for delight.
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Asus2 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
[Verse 6]
Am Asus2 Am Am7 Am
Now the earth is a witch, and we still burn her,
G Em F Am Asus2 Am
Stripping her down with mining, and the poison of our wars,
Am G Em Am
Still to us, the earth is a healer, a teacher, and a mother,
Em F Am
A weaver of a web, that keeps us all alive.
[Bridge]
Am G Em Am7 Am
She gives us the vision to see through the cha--os,
Em F Am
She gives us the courage, it is our will to survive.
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Am7 Am
(Isis, Astarte, Dia---na, Hecate, Demeter, Ka--li... Inan-na...)
