My love, she laughs like the flowers

Read books, and repeat quotations

She knows there's no success like failure

And that failure's no success at all

The cloak and dagger dangles

Madams light the candles

In ceremonies of the horsemen

B B 
 
Even a pawn   must hold a grudge
E E 
 
Statues made of matchsticks

Crumble into one another
A A 
 
E E 
 
My love winks, she doesn't bother
F#m7 F#m7 
 
B B

She knows  too much to argue or to judge

The bridge at midnight trembles

The country doctor rambles
A A 
 
E E 
 
Banker's nieces seek perfection
F#m7 F#m7 
 
B B 
 
Expecting all    the gifts that wise men bring

The wind howls like a hammer
A A 
 
E E 
 
The night blows rainy
A A 
 
E E 
 
My love, she's like some raven
F#m7 F#m7 
 
B B

At my window    with a broken wing
A A 
 
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E
