Alabaster Lady (F sharp minor)
(G major) I have always wanted

the world the (D major) way you do
But you're in (F sharp minor) tiny golden chains
(E minor) Somehow I think you know it

To (E minor) let your wings be
held by someone
Who's too in (B minor) tense for you

(G major) You are such a sweet
and sensual (D major) spirit
There's a (C major) joy (Csus4) with in him singing
And he loves you 'cause he

Still the (F sharp minor) child within remains

He sees your (E minor) soul as you walk about
And doesn't dare to let himself

Verse 3
You're so (G major) very young
Your life is just (C major) beginning (Dsus4)
Your consciousness (G major) begun
Like a sleepy child (C major) awakening
As (Dsus4) you reach out for (C major) me
With (G major) confidence still to come
Can you (E minor) teach me to be free
Of my fear (Asus4) of being (G major) struck (Asus4) down by (D major) the pendulum
