Intro 
Ooooh 
Bm 

Bm        G             A 
Down they fell like the children of eden 
Bm        G             A 
Down they fell like the tower 
        G      Bm            E 
As the land relinquished her ghost 


Bm        G           A 
Heed the sirens, take shelter, my lover 
Bm       G         A 
Flee the fire that devours 
        G             Bm 
But the sight held me fixed 
       G       A              A Bm G 
Like a bayonet against my throat  (ooooh) 


Bm      G                A 
Neither plague or famine tempered my courage 
Bm      G             A 
Nor did raids make me cower 
        G           Bm 
But his translucent skin 
        G               A  
Made me shiver deep within my bones 

A Bm G 
Ooooh    

         Bm         A 
It was a pale white horse 
       Bm       A 
With a crooked smile 
      Bm      A      A 
And i knew it was my time 

A Bm G 
Ooooh  

           Bm     A 
It was the raging storm 
     Bm      A 
Of a foreign war 
      Bm       A       A 
And a face i'd seen before 

A Bm G 
Ooooh
