Alright!
Way down south in a canter town Where all of the snowfields grow
One boy did rise with a devil in his eyes Whose heart was dark as Westfield coal
[G] Heart was dark as [Em] Westfield coal
Rattler and Farrell and the wind-dwarf girl Knelt down upon the darkened grave
He drew his dagger down and the red ran to the ground
And they licked along the bloody blade [G] Licked along the bloody [Em] blade
Purple grass, it cried from [Bm] how the [Em] blunting ground
Was a midnight curse of the bloody black patch That took another poor boy down
[G] Took another [Em] poor boy down
[G]
[Em] Riding in [G] [Em] the lake, the bitter folks have found their well
When this poor hammer knight drew the spirit's knife
And danced amidst the crimson spray [G] Danced amidst the [Em] crimson spray
Purple grass, it cried from how the blunting ground
Was a midnight curse of the bloody black patch That took another poor boy down
[G] Took another poor [Em] boy down
Purple grass,
[G]
[Em]
it cried from how the blunting ground
Take heed of me, mother, those children so lost Dwell not in the caves of your mind
Ride your barrel straight off the sand And leave them to his end
But bloody fields blossom blue in time
Bloody fields blossom blue in time
Riding on the blue, blue grass It cried from how the blunting ground
Was a midnight curse of the bloody black patch That took another poor boy down
[G] Took another [Em] poor boy down
[G] Yes, it took another poor boy [Em] down
