Verse 1
Am
Well there's a little house,
back there in the woods
Cuts and vines have torn apart
Am
There's a place beneath the floorboards,
where she kept her letters hid
And it tells a secret story,
about the awful things she did
Now the rain and worms have turned
her words back into the soil
G
Am
But the ground is drowned with
E

blood and oil
G

A stranger came to town,

selling magazines

Am
Door to door he'd tip his hat
Am
But for too long he knocked
upon the window of her house
It was then that she began to
wonder what life was about
And pretty soon his hat hung
E
on a nail inside her door
Am

And her hands were stained with blood

But soon he went away and she was alone

Her husband wrote from
Normandy that he was

Hour after hour, she paced the middle

She felt her stomach tighten
Bm
Am
with a certainty of doom
Bm
He would never understand just
how lonely she'd become
Am
So she packed a bag of clothes
Bm
Am
and a bottle of his rum
And she disappeared into the
E
world as the night uncoiled
Am
And she left behind a trail
Em

of blood and oil
