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