Intro:
[F] [C] [F] [C]
[F]How can you pine anymore
[C]it is beautiful
[F]and for all, [C]unavoidable
[F]so here are his [C]bones
[F]and his grinning [C]skull
[F]so now he is [C]home
[F]to the bluebottles[C]
[C] [Em] [Am] [F]
[Em]He who was your b[F]ull
[G]and made the shadows [F]run
And I [C]understand
[F]in all things he was [C]quite the man
but now [F]perched on his [C]skull
he [F]wears cuckolds [C]horns
[F]they're growing [C]full
[F]pushing through [C]the soil
[Em]pools gathering round my [F]knees
[G]temptation leers at me from [F]every door
[F]so these are his [C]bones
[Em]why won't you [F]leave them [C]alone?
[Em]worms crowding her [F]feet
[G]trying to pull me back to their [F]holes
[Em]tap-tapping in the [F]room below
[G]nothing more than dead [F]piles of bones
saying:
[C]'I'll eat this young whelp's [Em]heart I will'
[C]'I'll eat this young whelp's [Em]heart I will'
[C]'I'll eat this young whelp's [Em]heaaaaaaaart'
[F]HEAVE-[Em]HO
[F]HEAVE-[Em]HO
[Em]with fists for spades we [F]raid his grave
[Em]with big black boots we [Am]stomp the roots
[Em]with fists for spades we [F]raid his grave
[Em]with big black boots we [F]stomp the roof
[F]HEAVE-[Em]HO
[F]HEAVE-[Em]HO
[F]HEAVE-[Em]HO
[Am]HEAVE-[F]HO
[G]HEAVE-[Am]HO
