Bathory - The Woodwoman

^AmResting by my fire. Looking ^Fdeep into it's ^Gflames. My ^Ammind must have been somewhere else ^FFar beyond these ^Gplains. I am ^Amsuddenly aware of a pair of ^Feyes staring at ^Gme. I ^Amturn around and behold the most ^Fugly thing I have ^Gseen.

The ^Amwoman standing in the glade like a ^Fshadow in the ^Gnight ^AmPoints her wretched finger at me ^Fwith a wretched ^Gsmile And she ^Amasks me in a voice that sounds as ^Fif it's been so ^Glong ^Amsince she spoke, if I seek magic then ^FI should come a^Glong

^CI'm but a ^Gman. Mortal, a ^Dmman. But she leaves no ^Ffootprints in ^Gthe snow ^CStill I follow ^Gon to where she is ^Dmgoing For she has promised me ^Fmagic if ^GI follow ^Amon.

She ^Amtakes me to a part of these woods ^Ffew have ever ^Gseen. Where the ^Amsun surely won't reach Still the ground ^Fominously ^Ggleams. She ^Amsays she's seen me coming and that ^Fshe knows where I'll ^Ggo. But ^Ambefore I leave she says there is this ^Fone thing I should ^Gknow.

She ^Amoffers me the ability to ^Ftake a fatal ^Gwound. Every ^Amcut by sword or spear will be ab^Fsorbed by her tree-^Gwomb. The ^Ammagic will remain until it's ^Ftime for me to ^Gpart ^Amwith this mortal world. And all she'll ^Fclaim is my young ^Gheat.

^CI'm but a ^Gman. Mortal, a ^Dmman. And I'll need all ^Fthe help that ^GI can ^Cget. So I give my ^Gheart to the woman of the ^Dmdark With or without it...^Fmy life is ^Gnot over ^Amyet.

^AmWing of ^Embat and ^Flizard's ^Ceye. ^AmDust of a ^Emstar fallen ^Ffrom the ^Csky. ^AmTears of a ^Emvirgin, ^Fcum of a ^Cgod. ^AmThirteen ^Emdrops of an ^Finfant's ^Cblood A ^Amtwist of a ^Emcat's spit and ^Foil of the ^Cmoon ^AmStir for a ^Emwhile and ^Fvery ^Csoon A ^Amsalve to ^Embe app^Flied u^Cpon the ^Amchest close ^Emto where the ^Fheart beats ^Cstrong.

^AmNo pains ^Emwill o^Fccur when her ^Chand is ^Ampushed in^Emto my ^Fflesh ^C She'll ^Amslowly ^Emdraw my ^Fliving ^Cheart out ^Amof my ^Emopen ^Fchest. ^C She'll ^Amplace my ^Emheart in the ^Fpit of the ^Csnake and be^Amhold the ^Emyears go ^Fby. ^{C Am}Hers to ^Emkeep from the ^Fmoment ^Cwhen the ^Amtime has ^Emcome for ^Fme ^Cto ^Amdie. ^C, ^Dmi, ^F, ^G, ^Ami
