SHELTER FROM THE STORM ACORDES
[Start] [Verse] E B A E ■ It was in another lifetime one of toil and blood B A When blackness was a virtue the road was full of mud E A ■ I came in from the wilderness a creature void of form E Come in she said B A E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B A E And if I pass this way again you can rest assured B A I'll always do my best for her on that I give my word E B A In a world of steeleyed death and men who are fighting to be warm E Come in she said B A E B A E I'll give you shelter from the storm ■ ■ B A E Not a word was spoke between us there was little risk involved B A Everything up to that point had been left unresolved E B A ■ Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm E Come in she said B A E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B A I was burned out from exhaustion buried in the hail E B A ■ Poisoned in the bushes and blown out on the trail E B A ■ Hunted like a crocodile ravaged in the corn E B Come in she said A E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ A E Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there B A With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair E B A She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns E Come in she said B E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B A E Now there's a wall between us somethin' there's been lost A I took too much for granted I got my signals crossed E A Just to think that it all began on a noneventful morn E Come in she said B A E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B A E Well the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount B A But nothing really matters much it's doom alone that counts E B A And the oneeyed undertaker he blows a futile horn E Come in she said B E I'll give you shelter from the storm A E A E ■ ■ ■ ■ A E I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove B E A And old men with broken teeth stranded without love E A Do I understand your question then is it hopeless and forlorn E Come in she said A E I'll give you shelter from the storm A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B E In a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothes B A I bargained for salvation and she gave me a lethal dose E G#m7 B A I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn E Come in she said B E I'll give you shelter from the storm B A E A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Chorus] B A E Well I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line A Beauty walks a razor's edge someday I'll make it mine E A If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born E Come in she said B A E I'll give you shelter from the storm [Solo] B E A E A E A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Outro] B A E A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ B A E B A E ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [End]
