Blood For Blood

Gm
Had I seen the melting snow I saw and trembled
Gm
For this a power I did not know though I was bound with chains
Gm
She was cruel but beautiful and I was greedy
Gm                                                              D
And like a slave I then was sold by the way she said my name oh oh oh

[Chorus 1]
Gm             Bb            Eb             F
Father save me I the traitor I who knew and ran from Love
Gm             Bb           Eb            F
I can hear the condemnation in the rhythm of the drums

[Verse 2]
Gm
Though I knew all hope was lost and this what I deserved
Gm
I had been conquered by the frost and on my skin it burned
Gm
Her sheer power over me at her touch I turned to stone
Gm                                                                   D
But in her eyes I saw a fear a deeper magic than her own la da da da da da da

[Chorus 1]
Gm             Bb            Eb             F
Father save me I the traitor I who knew and ran from Love
Gm             Bb           Eb            F
I can hear the condemnation in the rhythm of the drums

[Verse 3]
Gm
And when I looked him in the eyes I felt the weight of all my sin
Gm
For I knew what the law required a death for death a traitor’s end
Gm
But when I thought I feel his wrath despaired and filled with shame
Gm                                                                 D
He bent down to search my eyes with such love whispered my name oh oh oh

[Chorus 2]
Gm             Bb            Eb             F
Father save me I the traitor I who knew and ran from Love
Gm             Bb            Eb            F
Father can you hear the Lion it is written blood for blood

[Chorus 2]
Gm             Bb            Eb             F
Father save me I the traitor I who knew and ran from Love
Gm             Bb            Eb            F
Father can you hear the Lion it is written blood for blood
