Biography:
Natalie Anne Merchant (born October 26, 1963 in Jamestown, New York) is an American alternative rock singer-songwriter. After rising to fame at the helm of the popular folk-rock band 10,000 Maniacs, Natalie Merchant enjoyed even greater success as a solo artist during the mid-'90s. Her literate, socially conscious songs established her among the preeminent women in pop music, while her solo debut -- 1995's Tigerlily -- helped pave the way for a number of female performers in a pre-Lilith Fair market.

==VERSE==
Bm G
Remember how it all began, the apple and the fall of man
D A
The price we paid,so the people say
Bm G
Down a path of shame it lead us, dared to bite the hand that fed us
D A Bm
The fairy tale. The moral end. The wheel of fortune never turns again
`
`
==CHORUS==
Bm G D Bm (x2)
(Never turns again)
`
`
==VERSE==
Bm G
The worst of it has come and gone in the chaos of millennium
D A
In the falling out of the doomsday crowd
Bm A G
Their last retreat is moving slow, they burn their bridges as they go
D A Bm
The heretic is beatified, he'll teach the harlot's child to smile
`
`
==CHORUS==
Bm G D Bm (x2)
`
`
==VERSE==
Bm G
Wracked again by indecision, should we make that small incision
D A
Testify to the bleeding heart inside?
Bm G
We cut, we scratched, we rent, we slashed and when he opened up at last
D A
Found a cul-de-sac deep and black of smoke and ash
`
`
==CHORUS==
Bm G D Bm (x2)
(Deep and black, smoke and ash)
`
`
==VERSE==
Bm G
The wicked king of parody is kissing all his enemies
D A
On the seventh day of the seventh week
Bm G
The tyrant's voice is softer now, but just for one forgiving hour
D A
Before the rise of his iron fist again
`
`
==CHORUS==
Bm G D Bm (x2)
(Fist again)

==VERSE==
Bm G
I've come tonight, I've come to know the way we are the way we'll go
D A
Come to measure this the width of the wide abyss
Bm G
I come to you in restless sleep where all your dreams turn bitter-sweet
D A
With voodoo doll philosophies and day-glo holy trinities
Bm G
The crooked raft that leaves the shore ferries drunken souls aboard
D A
Pilgrims march to Compestela visions of their saint in yellow
Bm G
All follow deep in trance, lost in a catatonic dance
D A F#m D
Know no future, damn the past, blind, warm, ecstatic, safe at last...
