Nightshade
The Lumineers
Capo 6 [Intro] [Verse 1] Some of us love to think of life as a game Others are born into royalty and can never behave Some find a freedom locking men in a cage oh no Some priest insisted it’s a test of the faith And only holy devotion can keep the devils away There’s only so much that a man can pray oh no [Chorus] Oh my love Oh my love Spare my blood Spare my blood [Verse 2] I saw the footprints in the white of the snow I counted thousands and I was just a rider alone 18 degrees and 80 miles from home oh no [Verse 3] We built a wall to keep the devils at bay A distant army was marching through the night and the day I swore an oath and with my life I would pay oh no [Chorus] Oh my love Oh my love Spare my blood [Bridge] Nightshade won’t you take me away And I could hold my breath for another day But it was all it was all for the throne [Verse 4] We were surrounded and the ending was near All of the sudden a ranger arrived a savior appeared Made it to safety but the devil was here oh no Oh my love [Bridge] Nightshade won’t you take me away And I could hold my breath for another day But it was all it was all for the throne
