(A minor) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor)
Verse 1
(A minor) Stumblin'
out of the cold (C major) gray fog
I (G major) started runnin' just to pick up the pace
(A minor) But the bastards behind me
were (C major) runnin' too fast
(G major) There was no way I could get away (A minor)
Oh, (F major) St. John,
(G major) you must help (A minor) me now
There's a power (G major) too great to escape
(A minor) I need (F major) the protection
of your garden (C major) tower
I need to (G major) see the light behind the gate (A minor)
The world only moves when
a woman (C major) dance
I'm (G major) on a twist the key to let the devil in (A minor)
I hand her the noose and (G major) my (C major) golden voice
With (G major) my life she can do as she pleases (A minor)
Don't let the (F major) chain round your neck
take your (A minor) breath away
It's too tight, (G major) but hey,
that's well understood (A minor)
Throw the (F major) lover off of (C major) your
naked shoulders
He's (G major) never done you any good (A minor)
Some (F major) day, one (G major) night,
when the (C major) snakes are crawl
(G major) ing out of para (A minor) dise
Wipe the (D minor) make -up off
your dirty (G major) little face
and shove more (E minor) coal on the (G major) fiery furnace
(A minor) More coal (E major) on the (G major) fiery fur (A minor) nace
Orpheus died not so (C major) long ago,
he'd been un (G major) derneath the
weather for a while (A minor)
His voice cracked open
before the (C major) curtains fell,
but he man (G major) aged to go
out in style (A minor)
(F major) Damaged his lungs (G major) with the
dry (A minor) cigarettes
and his tal (G major) ent, and ego made him lonely
(A minor) Well, his (F major) body and soul
had (G major) such (C major) ragged relations
If you (G major) listened you could hear him moaning (A minor)
Ah, the power of redemption
lies in (C major) the broken heart
(G major) Of a long -lost lover's lament (A minor)
You won't find beauty
without the (C major) underlying pain
There's (G major) no righteous man
that don't feel descent
(A minor) Once (F major) upon a time I
was (A minor) free as a bird
Now the (G major) devil pulled the dagger on my face (A minor)
I can see the (F major) madmen strolling
(G major) over (C major) the horizon
And if (G major) they don't hurry up
they're gonna be (A minor) late (F major)
Someday, (G major) one night
when the snakes (C major) are crawl
(G major) ing out of para (A minor) dise
Wipe (G major) (A minor) the (D minor) make -up off
your dirty (G major) little face
And shove more (E major) coal on the (G major) fiery furnace
(A minor) More coal (E major) on the (G major) fiery fur
(A minor) nace (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor)
All alone, a (C major) woman stands near
(G major) the paralyptic moon (A minor)
Blood still drippin' from
the gun (C major) in her hand
Did she kill (G major) all the men too soon? (A minor)
Eye (F major) s wide open, teardrop (A minor) ready to fall
Sad (G major) smile painted on her face (A minor)
She slips (F major) off her clothes
(G major) and di (C major) ves into the river
As the (G major) sins disintegrate (A minor)
Well, I can still smell the blood
on the (C major) new cut grass
I can still (G major) see the fog
across the water (A minor) s
Does she remember the pain I suffered?
(C major) Has she still (G major) got the pretty
things I got (A minor) her?
Well, I'm (F major) on my knees,
they're (A minor) covered in shame
I swear (G major) I was ready to surrender (A minor)
I built (F major) her a tower,
now (G major) she won't (C major) let me in
I can (G major) see her laughing now in all
that splendor (A minor) (F major)
Someday, (G major) one night,
when the (C major) snakes are crawl
(G major) ing out of para (A minor) dise
Wipe (G major) the (D minor) makeup off your dirty (G major) little face
And shove more (E minor) coal on
the (G major) fiery fur (A minor) nace
More coal (E major) on the (G major) fiery furnace (A minor) (C major) you (G major) (A minor) (C major) (G major)
(A minor)
(F major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) (F major) (C major) (G major)
(A minor) (A minor) (C major) (G major)
