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