[Verse]
C F7 G
Poison arrow be kind to me and I’ll be kind to you
C
It’s not just your poison, it’s the bow, the string

Shaft and feather too
F G
The rush of the wind
C F
The blue sky above
G
The rain that soaked the ground
C F
To give the oleander love

[Chorus]
F7 G
Go in peace be not afraid
C F
Roll em easy, Namaste
G C
All you sad and broken travelers, come on

[Chorus]
C
Poison arrow broke in my chest
F7 G
But I’m In my finery
C
At Le Divan on Boulevard St. Laurent
C G
Sipping dry sherry
F G
The sun is bleeding slow
C F
She dies in pink and blue
G
Etta’s on the radio
C F
Singing trust in me in all you do

[Chorus]
F G
Go in peace be not afraid
C F
Roll em easy namaste
G C
All you sad and broken travelers, come on

C
Je te souhaîte la paix
F F7 G
Je te souhaîte l’acceptance
C
Je te souhaîte une deuxième chance
F7 F
Et le coeur, le coeur d’un enfant
F
Routier Routier
G
Chanter! Chanter!
C F E
L’heure des miracles est arrivée
C G
Le poison peut-être médecin

Si t’on bois une goute seulement

Roll em easy, Namaste
