The Handsome Family - "Far From Any Road" from their album "Singing bones" (2003) Also the official theme song of HBO series "True Detective" Am E Dm Am From the dusty May sun her looming shadow grows Am E Dm Am Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote C She twines her spines up slowly G Towards the boiling sun Dm And when I touched her skin F My fingers ran with blood Am E Dm Am In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon Am E Dm Am I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom C G And strange hands halted me, the looming shadows danced Dm F I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands Am E When the last light warms the rocks Dm Am And the rattlesnakes unfold Am E Dm Am Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones C And rise with me forever G Across the silent sand Dm And the stars will be your eyes F And the wind will be my hands
