INTRO: Em

Am Em
We were unprepared

Am Em
By rights we should have been aware

Bm C G
With bow and flint and arrow

Bm D C
There were three deer outside the window


Em


Am Em
My father�s father would have known

Am Em
How to pull that wire and steady the bow

Bm C G
Send that arrow into her beating heart

Bm D C
How to cut her and use every part


Em


Am Em
We�ve got food for weeks and weeks

Am Em
And all that blood would find its way to the carpet

Bm C G
Sitting there I couldn�t shake that guilt

Bm D C
As the deer walked free up the hill

Em
