C                            C
So she woke up, woke up from where she was, lyin' still
      C                                         C
Said "I, I gotta do somethin' about where we're goin'"
C
  Stepped on steam train
C
  Stepped out of the driving rain, maybe
C                               C

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
C                                C
  I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
          C
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
C
scream without raising your voice
                    C
You know I took the poison

Oooooooooooo,  Ooo Ooo Ooo  Oooooo

Verse 3:

C
She runs through the streets with eyes painted red
C
Under a black belly of clouds in the rain
C
in through a doorway, she brings me
C
white gold and pearls stolen from the sea
       C                           C
she is raging she is raging and storm blows up in her eyes

Ending Chorus:

She will,
D          F/C    C        D
suffer the needle chill,
                 F/C  C   C
She's running to stand,   still.
