Em            G 
I have come into your house  
Em                                                   G 
You say there?s something I should know by now and I vow to hear you out  
Em               G 
But as you speak, how I feel the sting  
Em                                      G 
Like the hackles on a dog?s back I rise up to meet the 

C/G                     Am            Em 
Wordss you spoke in the middle of the night  
G                      Em        C/G 
They fall heavy like a hammer on my mind  
            C/G                               Em       Am 
You are the light in the darkness, you're the fire on the vine  

E7 
Oooh

Em (muted) G 
Oh my son, I have known your ways  
Em                                             G 
But I'm the gale that?ll rattle your gate; you shudder, I make you shake  
Em                     G 
You will find what you did not seek  
Em                    G (no longer muted) 
A road less narrow, a way not steep  

      D 
Oh my child 
          Em       C/G 
Don't you lose your place  
            D 
Remember my table  
   Am       Em 
Remember my face 

        C/G                      Am            Em 
And the things I told you in the middle of the night  
G                      Em        C/G 
They fall heavy like a hammer on your mind  
         C/G                            Em         Am 
I am the light in the darkness, I'm the fire on the vine

Em  G      C/G 
You turn away  
Em  G      C/G 
I'm left alone  
Am   G      C/G 
Then came a sign  
Am            G    C/G 
Then came the Revelation  

           Em                       D 
And I said you, you will not dig a hole in me  
                   Am 
You will not chop down my tree  
                     C/G 
Or hold me under the water  

       Em                       D 
No and you, you will not dig a hole in me  
                   Am 
You will not chop down my tree  
                     C/G 
Or hold me under the water
