 E E7 E5 E

  E               E7        E5               E
'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
  E                   E7             E5               E
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
  E                   E7           E5               E
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

     E              E7        E5            E
And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured
  E               E7                E5             E
I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word
  E                       E7                    E5             E
In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

  E                     E7                  E5             E
Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved
  E            E7               E5             E
Everything up to that point had been left unresolved.
  E               E      7        E5              E
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

  E                   E7          E5            E
I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,
  E               E7        E5               E
Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail,
  E            E7        E5               E
Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

  E        E7                E5               E
Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
  E                   E7                E5             E
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair.
     E                 E7             E5               E
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

     E                 E7        E5                    E
Now there's a wall between us, somethin' there's been lost
  E                 E7       E5              E
I took too much for granted, got my signals crossed.
  E                    E7            E5             E
Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

           E           E7                     E5               E
Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
     E               E7                E5              E
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
        E               E7        E5            E
And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

      E            E7              E5              E
I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
     E            E7          E5               E
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love.
     E               E7                   E5               E
Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn?
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

     E               E7           E5               E
In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
  E                 E7              E5               E
I bargained for salvation an' they gave me a lethal dose.
  E             E    7        E5               E
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

E7 E5 E E

  E                    E7                      E5                 E
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
  E             E7            E5                   E
Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
   E                  E7                    E5               E
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born.
  E                          E7        E5               E
"Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."
