[Verse 1]
G C Em
Wrapped in the wings of a sparrow
F C Cmaj7
Beak is as sharp as an arrow
G C Em
Sings in a whispering whistle
F C Cmaj7
Sleeps in the ivy and thistle
G C Em
Owls out swooping and howling
F C Cmaj7
Deep in the midnight a-prowling
G C Em
Mama, the scream of the eagle
F C Cmaj7
Threading my heart through the needle
G C Em
Threading the blood through the apple
F C Cmaj7
Sucking the juice from the apple
G C Em
Eating the seeds of the apple
F C Cmaj7
Bearing the tree of the apple
G C Em
Trapped in the weeds like a scarecrow
F C Cmaj7
Stuck to the wind like Velcro
G C Em
Distantly hearing the bell toll
F C Cmaj7
Warbling chime through the meadow
[Verse 2]
G C Em
Mama, the scream of the eagle
F C Cmaj7
Threading my heart through the needle
G C Em
Threading the blood through the apple
F C Cmaj7
Eve sucked the juice from the apple
G C Em
Nakedly running, I saw her
F C Cmaj7
Boy chasing after to stall her
G C Em
I wish I'd have spoken to call her
F C Cmaj7
Before she found fabric to shawl her
G C Em
Breasts bound and burdened with fiber
F C Cmaj7
Adam came trembling beside her
Cmaj7
And he said, and he said
G C Em
That she has the poison inside her
F C Cmaj7
She talks to snakes and they guide her
G C Em
She has the poison inside her
F C Cmaj7
She talks to snakes and they guide her
G C Em
She has the poison inside her
F C Cmaj7
She talks to snakes and they guide her
G C Em
She has the poison inside her
F C Cmaj7
She talks to snakes and they guide her
