Orion said, This body is mine,
            C      C/B     C C/B     Am
And you may do with it whatever you like 
              F                                    G 
But when the sky turns red you'd better come back home
      Em
'Cause I can't spend these summer nights alone

C      C/B       C      C/B     Am
Orion said, I'm just a humble hunter
C           C/B    C C/B    Am
The dog the only company I keep
     F                               G
Forgive me if I fear that you will change me
          Em
But I've seen my fortune written in the leaves

C        C/B       Am         C/G        F
     Ah, push it through! Ah, push it through!
             C   C/B      Am         C/G     F
Because the body and the mind can't heal in two
  Am      Em            Am                    Em
Orion and dog, how the road you've walked was long
        Am              Em
But the winter of your song
            G 
Is slowly fading

C   C/B  Am   C/G   F
C   C/B  Am   C/G   F
Am   Em
Am   Em
Am   Em   G

C      C/B          C     C/B      Am
Orion said, You'd better treat me true
            C       C/B    C    C/B         Am
You should hold me like a bird inside your palm
       F                                       G
'Cause I can't be just another heart you've broken
            Em
'Cause I'm getting much too old

C           C/B     C       C/B      Am
Orion, she said, I know all men are mortal
         C        C/B        C        C/B       Am
And the ships in which you travel are full of thieves
         F                               G
But the only way that you will ever have me
           Em
Is if you throw your body into the sea

C        C/B       Am         C/G        F
    Ah, push it through! Ah, push it through!
             C   C/B      Am         C/G     F
Because the body and the mind can't heal in two
  Am      Em             Am               Em
Orion and dog, how your light will live beyond
     Am            Em
Your final summer song
             G
Or so it's fated

  Am      Em             Am               Em
Orion and dog, How your light will live beyond
      Am           Em
your final summer song
             G
Or so it's fated
             F
Or so it's fated
          Em
So it is fated

Am   G   F   C
