Praying Mantis

 
Ebm 
Weave me a chain 

Of eggs and disdain 
Ebm 
When I fell 

I fell hard 
 

 
Ebm 
Highest leaf on the stalk 

Sure, she knows how she walks 
Ebm 
When I fell 

I fell hard 
 

 
Ebm 
Scissored hands 

Commands me to stand 
Ebm 
Emerald eyes 

Reveals her lies (Lies!) 
 

 
    F#m/C# 
She prays, she preys 
E 
Letter of different faith 
F#m/C#       E 
Both unite unto my fate 

Edim Daug C# 
 

 
Ebm 
Grind my wings 

Til I no longer can sing 
Ebm 
Tempt to fly 

Weight tumbles 
 

 
  Ebm 
Antenna twitches 

Souls bewitched 
Ebm 
Emerald eyes 

Reveals her lies 
 

 
   Ebm 
To lives in succession 

That follow said session 
Ebm 
When I fell 

I fell hard 
 

 
        Ebm 
Deaths tender kiss 

Her face brings bliss 
Ebm 
When I fell 

I fell hard (I fell hard!) 
 

 
    F#m/C# 
She prays, she preys 
E 
Letter of different faith 
F#m/C#       E 
Both unite unto my fate
