who goes there?

a young woman with castanets

B7 Em
the dance of the dead

with rosary beads in her hands
did you come to pray for my soul?
or to pour red wine on my head
on my head
verse 3
with a shovel and a spade
did you come to plant me flowers?
or to desecrate my grave
desecrate my grave
verse 4
with a child in your hand

with a crown around his head
did you come to take me home
or to verify my debt
verify my debt
verse 6
with the contract that you hold
did you come to foreclose
or collect a tax upon my soul
tax upon my soul
