'Twas in another lifetime,

I came in from the wilderness,

a creature void of form

And if I pass this way again,
A
E
you can rest assured
B
I'll always do my best for her,
E

In a world of steel-eyed death,
A
and men who are fighting to be warm
B

I'll give ya shelter from the

B
A
E
E
storm
Verse 3
E
B
Not a word was spoke between us,
A
E
there was little risk involved
B
Everything up to that point
A
had been left unresolved

Try imagining a place

storm

Verse 4
E
B
I was burned out from exhaustion,
A

I'll give ya shelter from the
E
B
A
E
storm

Verse 5
E
B
Suddenly I turned around
A
E
and she was standin' there
B
With silver bracelets on her wrists
A

She walked up to me so gracefully
A
and took my crown of thorns

I'll give ya shelter from the
E
B

Verse 6
E
B
Now there's a wall between us,
A
E
somethin' there's been lost

Just to think that it all began

I'll give ya shelter from the

B
A
E
storm

Verse 7
E
B
Well, the deputy walks on hard nails
A
E
and the preacher rides a mount
B
But nothing really matters much,
A
it's doom alone that counts
E

And the one-eyed undertaker,
B
A
I'll give ya shelter from the
E
B
A
E
storm

Verse 8
E
B
I've heard newborn babies wailin'
A
E
like a mournin' dove
B
And old men with broken teeth
E

Do I understand your question, man,

is it hopeless and forlorn
B
A
I'll give ya shelter from the
E
B
A
E
storm

Verse 9
E
B
In a little hilltop village,
A
E
they gambled for my clothes

I bargained for salvation and she
E

I offered up my innocence

I got repaid with scorn

I'll give ya shelter from the

Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country
A

but I'm bound to cross the line

Beauty walks a razor's edge,
A
someday I'll make it mine
E
B
If I could only turn back the clock to when
B
A
I'll give ya shelter from the
E
B
A
storm
