The White Buffalo And The Forest Rangers - Come Join The Murder
## NOTE 1: To play the original Key starting in Dm without Capo, Transpose up 5 semitones. ##
## This version with Capo allows everyone, including novices, to play the song. ##
## NOTE 2: It was pointed out to me that the correct word in the Chorus is 'trap' not 'track. ##
## The lyrics have been changed accordingly. ##
CAPO: 5th Fret
Intro
Verse
There's a blackbird perched
outside my window
I hear him calling
I hear him sing
He burns me with his eyes of
gold to embers
He sees all my sins
He reads my soul
Pre-chorus
One day that bird, he spoke to
me
Like Martin Luther, like
Pericles___
Chorus
Come join the murder
Come fly with black
We'll give you freedom
From the human trap
Come join the murder
Soar on my wings
You'll touch the hand of God
He'll make you king
He'll make you king___
Verse
On a blanket made of woven
shadows
Flew up to heaven
On a raven's glide
These angels have turned my
wings to wax now
I fell like Judas
From grace tonight
Pre-chorus
And on that day he lied to me
Like Martin Luther, like
Pericles___
Chorus
Come join the murder
Come fly with black
We'll give you freedom
From the human trap
Come join the murder
Soar on my wings
You'll touch the hand of God
He'll make you king
He'll make you king___
Interlude
Verse
I walk among the children of my
fathers
The broken wings
Betrayal's cost
They call to me, but never touch
my heart now
I am too far
I'm too lost
Pre-chorus
All I can hear is what he spoke
to me
Like Martin Luther, like
Pericles___
Chorus
Come join the murder
Come fly with black
We'll give you freedom
From the human trap
Come join the murder
Soar on my wings
You'll touch the hand of God
He'll make you king
He'll make you king___
Instrumental
Verse
So now I curse that raven's fire
You made me hate
You made me burn
He laughed aloud as he flew from
Eden
You always knew
You never learn
Pre-chorus
The crow no longer sings to me
Like Martin Luther or
Pericles___
Chorus
Come join the murder
Come fly with black
We'll give you freedom
From the human trap
Come join the murder
Soar on my wings
You'll touch the hand of God
He'll make you king
Chorus
Come join the murder
Come fly with black
We'll give you freedom
From the human track
Come join the murder
Soar on my wings
You'll touch the hand of God
He'll make you king
He'll make you king___
