standard tuning

B
with piranha teeth I been dreaming of you
                      D    A  E                B
and the taste of your love so sweet honest its true

through my heart flows sleep and the dark heavy rain
                        D   A  E                         B
where the gravediggers song is sung youve been torturing me
     A                            B
tout est noir  mon amour tout est blanc
    A                             B
je taime  mon amour comme jaime la nuit

love is the medicine good
                   D     A     E                  B
is the crow flying eight miles high over wire and wood

shovel down six feet with a head heavy pain
             D      A  E                           B
the magnolia blooms so sweet and it fades just the same
       A                    B
to the stars my love to the sea
       A                                      B
to the wheels my love till they roll all over me

B
oh love i been thnking of you
                 D     A  E                B
with razor white teeth so sharp honest its true

in my blood flows sleep and the dark heavy rain
             D      A  E                    B
the magnolia blooms so sweet only torturing me

to the stars my love to the sea
       A                                      B
