Dm Men are made From blood and bone C Dm Like metals made from dust Am Men are bound to die alone G Dm Like metals bound to rust verse 1 Dm C Dm Late, late, late night on the hill Am G Dm The poet came a knocking on the shamans window sill Dm C Dm Help me my words don't visit anymore Am G Dm The shaman he laughed picked a mouse up from the floor Dm C Dm They sat there in the dark whilst a mooty was prepared Am G Dm From the blood of the mouse and an eagles head Dm C Dm Drink this said the shaman, it will calm you mind Am G Dm I promise the words will flow from you like the rain from the sky Dm C Dm So the poet he drank, till the glass was bare Am G Dm While outside a nightingale sang in the air Dm C Dm Thank you said the poet, may the gods bless your soul Am G Dm He shook the old mans hand, walked out into the cold Dm C Dm Early the next morning as the sun began to rise Am G Dm Screams rang out across the old diamond mines Dm C Dm My lover, My lover, My lover is dead Am G Dm Next to his wife lay the poet In his bed

Dm Men are made From blood and bone C Dm Like metals made from dust Am Men are bound to die alone G Dm Like metals bound to rust verse 2 Dm C Dm After many years past and gone and many tears cried Am G Dm Still no one could console the poor old poets bride Dm C Dm For in this life or the next still she implored Am G Dm That one of these days she would see her love once more Dm C Dm Then one day in the winter while the famines took a hold Am G Dm Into a tavern walked a stranger from the cold Dm C Dm Said I'm looking for my lover I've been away for many years Am G Dm The poets widow was summoned from her tears Dm C Dm If it's you said the widow then where have you been Am G Dm The demons said the stranger they took me from my sleep Dm C Dm They locked me in a cave put nails through my skull Am G Dm I escaped with the help of this lonesome nightingale Dm C Dm If it's you said the widow then spin me a line Am G Dm The stranger cleared his throat looked deep into her eyes

Dm Said men are made From blood and bone C Dm Like metals made from dust Am Men are bound to die alone G Dm Like metals bound to rust Dm C Dm They drank and they danced late into the night Am G Dm But the poets father was not so satisfied Dm C Dm Next morning the stranger was awoken with a thud Am G Dm As the police came to take samples of his blood Dm C Dm And as the results of the test came in Am G Dm The poets father screamed I knew it wasn't him Dm C Dm Well a lonely executioner sharpened his blade Am G Dm From doing god's work a living he made Dm C Dm And just before he raised his axe up too the birds Am G Dm He asked the stranger do you have any last words Bridge Am G Dm And the shaman he smiles up on the hill Am G Dm His promise to the poet was fulfilled Am G Dm And the widow she cries to the moon Am G Dm And the nightingale sang her last tune
