[Intro]
It was the Fyear the crows and the locusts cAmame
The Cfields drank dry the rGain
The fields are Fbleeding
[Instrumental 1]

[Verse 1]
AmDaddy don't cry, it'll Fbe aClright
She Gputs some wAmater on the wound
And hums a little tune Fwhile
Her Ccourage puddles on the groundG
PooliFng, GpooliFng
[Verse 2]
AmSee the murder and the sFwarm dCescend G
And the Amnight is getting thick,
The moon turning her tFricks
She'll bCetray you every Gtime
[Chorus]
It was the yFear the crows and the locusts Amcame
The fCields drank dry the Grain
The fields are bleedFing
It was the age the foxes came for the Amfields
We were Cbleeding as we bowed to kGneel
And pray for mercy, pray for Fmercy
[Bridge 1]
The rAmumble is low and the heat is high
Got a Gfeeling that there's rain out in the Foil black sky
Gonna Amchase away the devil when that song does rise
GonnaG pFlead the blood
GonnGa pFlead the blood
[Instrumental 2]

The fCields drank dry the Grain
The fields are bleedFing
It was the age the foxes came for the Amfields
We were Cbleeding as we bowed to kGneel
And pray for mercy, pray for Fmercy
[Bridge 2]
She Amlimps on up to the top of a mound
GLooks at the faltered Fharvest
Feels her sAmweat in the ground
And the Amburn in her nose
And the Gknowing in her guts,
Something's Fstill gonna grow
n.c.
She ain't leaving 'til it does

GNothing but the blood
AmWhat can wash Gaway my Amsin
GNothing but the blood
