Zero She FliesCifra

B 
She's a mollusk 
A seamstress 
A princess 
A priestess 
A negress 
She knows her position 
E 
She's a swallow 
A willow 
A cello 
A pillow 
A bow 
And also a physician 
F#             E 
She takes your eyes 
And mends your head 
F#            E 
She draws the wine 
And breaks the bread 
B 
She has no lies to tell you 
And no truths to sell you 
        A 
She's a girl 
              B 
She's almost a woman 


G                     D           A 
And zero she flies as the morning sighs 
E                          B 
    Spreads her wings like a seagull 
G 
From the mountain he watches her 
D          A 
Biding his time 
E                            B          
But his eyes are the eyes of an eagle 

( A  B ) 

B 
He's a hawthorn 
A raven 
A scarecrow 
A haven 
For moon-blessed thought and opinion 
E 
He will laugh like the fountains 
The bones of the mountains 
Lie deep in his forest religion 
F#                     E 
You will call his name when evening falls 
F#                     E 
And the ground sets hard and the night wind calls 
B 
You will feed him and heed him 
At times you will need him 
A            F#        B 
Say you were almost his woman 

G                      D          A 
And Zero she flies as the morning sighs 
E                           B 
     Spreads her wings like a seagull 
G 
From the mountain he watches her 
D          A 
Biding his time 
E                         B          
But his eyes are the eyes of an eagle 

( B ) 

B 
In the shuddering mad red blood-let sunset 
A tired man is leaving his cover 
E 
And the soft eyes of Zero 
Are cut by the sounds 
Of the vanishing feet of her lover 
F#           E 
And the door slams shut 
And the air grows tight 
F#                E 
And her throat is gripped 
By the hands of night 
B  
And all that is left 
Is the clock on the shelf 
A               F#       B 
As it ticks one day into another 

G                     D           A 
And Zero she sighs as the morning dies 
E                      B 
With the broken wings of a seagull 
G                                 D           A 
From the mountain he watches her, sensing his time 
E                            B       Bm 
But his eyes are the eyes of an eagle 

( A  B ) 

B 
At the pall of the day the man of the mountain 
Is nearing the end of his travel 
              E 
And the fence is down 
On the westland bounds 
And a footfall pounds in the gravel 
F#                   E 
Comes a knock three times 
And the air grows still 
F#          E 
As he steps inside from the sudden chill 
        B 
And the moment is caught in the net of the night 
A              F#         B 
For the coming of dawn to unravel 

G                      D          A 
And Zero she flies as the morning sighs 
E                         B 
   Spreads her wings like a seagull 
G 
From the mountain he's coming 
D           A 
Judging his time 
E                         B 
And his eyes are the eyes of an eagle 
G                    D           A 
Oh Zero she flies as the morning dies 
E                          B 
   Spreads her wings like a seagull 
G 
From her window he watches her 
D            A 
A man in his time 
E                      D          B        
But his eyes are the eeeyes of an eagle
