  Em            B7
  I was made in darkest night

  C                 Am
  of chalky ash and childrens' fright

  Em            B7
  I was made of aching hurt

  C                 Am
  of fairytales and bloodied dirt

VERSE II
Once a mighty tree was grown
For you to know all that is known
I hope you hear exactly what I say
And by your sword a branch came down
And where the blood fell to the ground
It is my cradle and there I must stay
And should ever you return
Well I must confess my story to be true
You will be burned
And I hope that you have learned

  Am
  All caught fire in the
