Shelter From The Storm

Capo 1st fret = original key

Intro - A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A

A E D A Twas in another lifetime - one of toil and blood E D A When blackness was a virtue - the road was full of mud E D A I came in from the wilderness - a creature void of form E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A Not a word was spoke between us - there was little risk involved E D A Everything up to that point had been left unresolved E D A Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A I was burned out from exhaustion - buried in the hail E D A Poisoned in the bushes - blown out on the trail E D A Hunted like a crocodile - ravaged in the corn E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there E D A With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair

E D A She walked up to me so gracefully - and took my crown of thorns E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A Well the deputy walks on hard nails - the preacher rides a mount E D A But nothing really matters much - it's doom alone that counts E D A And the one-eyed undertaker - he blows a futile horn E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A In a little hilltop village - they gambled for my clothes E D A I bargained for salvation - they gave me a lethal dose E D A I offered up my innocence - got repaid with scorn E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A Now there's a wall between us - somethin' there's been lost E D A I took too much for granted - got my signals crossed E D A Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."

A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A … A-E-D-A …. A-E-D-A

A E D A I'm livin' in a foreign country - but I'm bound to cross the line E D A Beauty walks a razor's edge someday I'll make it mine

E D A If I could only turn back the clock - to when God and her were born E D A "Come in," she said, "I'll give you - shelter from the storm."
