[Em]I have come in[G]to your house
[Em]You say there?s something I should know by now and I [G]vow to hear you out
[Em]But as you speak,[G] how I feel the sting
[Em]Like the hackles on a dog?s back I rise [G]up to meet the
[C/G]Wordss you spoke in the [Am]middle of the [Em]night
[G]They fall heavy like a [Em]hammer on [C/G]my mind
You are the [C/G]light in the darkness, you?re the [Em]fire on t[Am]he vine
E7*
Oooh

Em (muted) G
Oh my son, I have known your ways
[Em]But I?m the gale that?ll rattle your gate; you [G]shudder, I make you shake
[Em]You will find what you [G]did not seek
Em G (no longer muted)
A road less narrow, a way not steep
Oh my [D]child
Don?t you [Em]lose your[C/G] place
Remember my [D]table
Rem[Am]ember my [Em]face
And the [C/G]things I told you in the [Am]middle of the [Em]night
[G]They fall heavy like a [Em]hammer on [C/G]your mind
I am the [C/G]light in the darkness, I?m the [Em]fire on the[Am] vine
E7*

[Em]You [G]turn aw[C/G]ay
[Em]I?m [G]left al[C/G]one
[Am]Then [G]came a [C/G]sign
[Am]Then came the [G]Revel[C/G]ation
And I said [Em]you, you will not dig a h[D]ole in me
You will not chop d[Am]own my tree
Or hold me under the [C/G]water
No and [Em]you, you will not dig a h[D]ole in me
You will not chop d[Am]own my tree
Or hold me under the [C/G]water
