Verse 1
G

C
But I could not hold on to her very long
G
F
So I cut off my hair,
G
Gm
F
To the wild unknown country
G
F
I came to a high place of
C
G
darkness and light
G
F
So I hitched up my pony
C
G
to the post on the right
Gm
F
I went into the laundry
C
G
to wash my clothes down
A man in the corner
F
C
G
approached me for a match
I could see right away,
F
C
he was not ordinary
G
F
He said, are you looking for
G
F
I said, I ain't got no money, man
C
G
He said, that ain't necessary
F
C

for the cold of the north
I gave him my blanket
F
C
and he gave me his word
F
C
G
He said we'll be back by the fourth
C
G
that I've ever heard
I was thinking about turquoise
F
C
I was thinking about gold
F
C
G
and the world's biggest necklace
G
F
I was thinking about Isis,
C
G
how she thought I was so reckless
She told me one day
F
C
G
we would meet up again
C
G
the next time we met
F
C
If I would only hang on and just be her friend
G
F
I still can't re member
C
G
F
C

the best thing she said

We came to the pyramids on a midnight
F
C
that I'm trying to find
G
F
C
If we carry it out, it'll bring a good price
F
C
G
what he had on his mind
F
C
And we chopped through the dawn
G
F
When he died, I was hoping
F
C
G
I had to keep on, I went down in the hole
F
C
But the casket was empty,
G
F
there were no jewels, no nothing
C
G
I felt I'd been had,
C
G
He was just being friendly,
when I took up his offer
F
C
G
Gm
F
I must have been mad!
C
G
F
C
G
F
C
G
F
C
F
C
and I dragged him inside
G
Gm
G
F
Threw him down in the tomb,
F
C
just to feel satisfied
G
F
Then I rode to find Isis,
C
G
just to tell her I love her
C
G
where the creek used to rise
F
C
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed
F
C
G
with the sun in my eyes
I cursed her one time
F
C
then I rode on ahead
F
C
G
I said, no place special
She said, you look different
F
C
G
I said, well, I guess
She said, you've been gone
F
C
G
I said, that's only natural
She said, you wanna stay?
F
C
I said, if you want me to,
G
F
C
G
Gm
F
C
G
yeah!
F
G
F
C
G
F
C
Isis, oh Isis, you're a mystical child
G
F
What drives me to you
G
F
I still can't remember
C
G
the way that you smiled
C
G
in the drizzling rain
