Nightshade

[Verse 1] Am Some of us love to think of life as a game F Others are born into royalty and can never behave Dm F E Am Some find a freedom locking men in a cage, oh no Am Some priest insisted it's a test of the faith F And only holy devotion can keep the devils away Dm F E Am There's only so much that a man can pray, oh no [Refrain] F Oh, my love Dm Am Oh, my love F Spare my blood Dm Am Spare my blood [Verse 2] Am I saw the footprints in the white of the snow F I counted thousands and I was just a rider alone Dm F E Am Eighteen degrees and eighty miles from home, oh no Am We built a wall to keep the devils at bay F A distant army was marching through the night and the day Dm F E Am I swore an oath and with my life I would pay, oh no [Refrain] F Oh, my love Dm Am Oh, my love F Spare my blood Chorus F Dm Nightshade, won't you take me away? Am C And I can hold my breath for another day F Dm Am But it was all, it was all for the throne [Verse 3] Am We were surrounded and the ending was near F All of the sudden, a ranger arrived, a savior appeared Dm F E Am Made it to safety, but the devil was here, oh no Chorus F Oh, my love F Dm Nightshade, won't you take me away? Am C And I can hold my breath for another day F Dm Am But it was all, it was all for the throne
