Intro: Dbm A Birds of prey spiral around my head Dbm B Db E They hiss songs of your birth, they caw visions of death Dbm I’ve watched it happen again and again, haunted by Dbm B Db E a thousand kind beginnings and a thousand bloodied ends Dbm Am A I shouldn’t play with fate Dbm B Am B But what if once, I could make you safe?
