Far From Any Road Song Lyrics

From the dusty mesa
Her looming shadow grows
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote
She twines her spines up slowly
Towards the boiling sun
And when I touched her skin
My fingers ran with blood

*****

In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
And strange hands halted me, the looming shadows danced
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands

*****

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

*****

And rise with me forever
Across the silent sand
And the stars will be your eyes
And the wind will be my hands……

Far From Any Road Song Chords

From the dusty mesa

Her looming shadow grows

Hidden in the branches

of the poison creosote

She twines her spines up slowly

Towards the boiling sun

And when I touched her skin

My fingers ran with blood

In the hushing dusk

Under a swollen silver moon

I came walking with the wind

To watch the cactus bloom

A strange hunger haunted me,

The looming shadows danced

I fell down to the thorny brush

And felt a trembling hand

When the last light warms the rocks

And the rattlesnakes unfold

Mountain cats will come

to drag away your bones

And rise with me forever

Across the silent sand

And the stars will be your eyes

And the winds will be my hands
