Hallowed Ground

W.A.S.P.

EmCD

Em
Come and take me down
CD
The dark beyond
And take me there
Where I come from

EmCD
Take me down to the place where I will kneel
And let me lay my shadow down
In through the eyes of a child’s inner me
No pain to heal my bloodied brow

Em      C     D
There is no rain to save this silent dawn
There is no rain to save at all
There is no rain to save this silent ground
There is no rain to save at all

Am

Chorus-
Em
Oh father take me
C
To where I lay me down
D
On hallowed ground
Em
Oh the sky is falling
C
And I don’t know where my home is now
D
My hallowed ground
Em
Oh and can you take me
C
For I have tasted hallowed ground
D
Oh all around

EmCD

Bridge-
EmCD
Father, do you hear me
This pain will not cry out loud
Father, I know you hear me
EmCAm
My head is bludgeoned but unbound


Chorus
