  >From the album "Aoxomoxoa".

  Upon listening to this song the lyrics are fuzzy due to the wonderful 
  filter on the vocals, giving it that creepy haunting sound.  i have found 
  no less than three different "official" words to the first line, some 
  funnier than others.  "Swath of heaven..." to (what i hear) "Scents of 
  heather...", the one here is from Hunter's book _Box of Rain_.  That, to 
  me, is the final word, aye?
  	i also found that the chords listed in a certain music book are 
  very close, but not exact.  Perhaps neither are mine, but here they are.
  As always, corrections are welcome...
  
  E (7th fret)		   D (5th fret)
  Her boots were of leather, a breath of cologne
  A		   Bm	       A	 E	
  Her mirror was the window, she sat quite alone.
  E		   F#	
  All around her the garden then grew
  A	    Bm	       A	   E
  Scarlet and purple and crimson and blue.
  
  E			     D	
  She came and she went and at last went away
  A	       Bm	       A       E		 	
  Her garden was sealed when the flowers decayed.
  E			    F#	
  On the wall of the garden a legend did say:
   A	    Bm	      A		       Bm
  "No one may come here since no one may stay_____."
