The Handsome Family - Far From Any Road chords

The Handsome Family - "Far From Any Road" from their album "Singing bones" (2003)

Also the official theme song of HBO series "True Detective"



Am             E           Dm             Am
From the dusty May sun her looming shadow grows

Am             E              Dm          Am
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote

C
She twines her spines up slowly
  G
Towards the boiling sun
    Dm 
And when I touched her skin
   F
My fingers ran with blood

Am             E            Dm             Am
In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
Am             E                Dm               Am
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom

    C                             G
And strange hands halted me, the looming shadows danced
  Dm                                F
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands



Am                  E
When the last light warms the rocks
        Dm             Am
And the rattlesnakes unfold
Am                 E       Dm             Am
Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones

    C
And rise with me forever
 G
Across the silent sand
        Dm
And the stars will be your eyes
        F
And the wind will be my hands
