[Intro]
| A | A | A | A
[Verses]
A G D A
I married Isis on the fifth day of May
G D A
But I could not hold on to her very long
G D A
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away
G D A | A | A ||
For the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong.
A G D A
I came to a high place of darkness and light
G D A
The dividing line ran through the center of town
G D A
I hitched up my pony to a post on the right
G D A
Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down.
A G D A
A man in the corner approached me for a match
G D A
I knew right away he was not ordinary
G D A
He said "Are you looking for something easy to catch ?"
G D A
I said "I got no money". He said "That ain't necessary".
A G C A
We set out that night for the cold in the North
G D A
I gave him my blanket he gave me his word
G D A
I said "Where are we going ?" He said "We'd be back by the fourth"
G D A
I said "That's the best news that I've ever heard".
A G D A
I was thinking about turquoise I was thinking about gold
G D A
I was thinking about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace
G D A
As we rode through the canyons through the devilish cold
G D A
I was thinking about Isis how she thought I was so reckless.
A G D A
How she told me that one day we will meet up again
G D A
And things would be different the next time we wed
G D A
If I only could hang on and just be her friend
G D A
I still can't remember all the best things she said.
A G D A
We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice
G D A
He said "There's a body I'm trying to find
G D A
If I carry it out it'll bring a good price"
G D A
It was then that I knew what he had on his mind.
A G D A
The wind it was howling and the snow was outrageous
G D A
We chopped through the night and we chopped through the dawn
G D A
When he died I was hoping that it wasn't contagious
G D A
But I made up my mind that I had to go on.
A G D A
I broke into the tomb but the casket was empty
G D A
There was no jewels no nothing I felt I'd been had
G D A
When I saw that my partner was just being friendly
G D A
When I took up his offer I must-a been mad.
