       F                        C          Am    AmThey swarm on her carcass with torches and axes
         F                       Am   AmLike a whale on the bloody shoreline


   AmStripped of her pillars
      G             Am Her stays and her stantions
             Am        C            Em              Em When there's only her bones on the wet poison land
  F                             C          Am       AmSteel ropes will drag her with winches and engines
