++Seven Sisters

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Old hands turn the frozen soil

My father taught me how to kneel

Beneath a sun that never warms us

The chapel stones remember well

Pre-Chorus

I count the years by candle marks

I carve my name into the bark

Nobody comes to call

Chorus

Seven sisters in the yew

One goes missing one returns

Seven sisters in the yew

Nobody comes to call

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Nobody comes to call

Verse 2

My sister vanished in the winter

They searched the hills for forty days

I heard her humming through the water

I heard her humming through the clay

Pre-Chorus

I count the stones along the path

I trace the moss and let it pass

Nobody comes to call

Chorus

Seven sisters in the yew

One goes missing one returns

Seven sisters in the yew

Nobody comes to call

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Nobody comes to call

Bridge

Say the word and I will follow

Say the word and I will stay

Say the word and I will follow

Down where roots and rivers braid

Chorus

Seven sisters in the yew

One goes missing one returns

Seven sisters in the yew

Nobody comes to call

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Nobody comes to call
