capo at 4th. fret
She cCame and she Ftouched Cme wGith Chands made of FheaCvenG
ReflEmections sent spFinnin' through a face laced in mCist.
Now I stand where she Fleft Cme buGried Cdeep 'neath her FshCadGow
And mEmirror pleads sFadly has it all come to tChis'
And I Gwonder, will she Fcall my nGame' G7
Where the wCind careens FmadCly tGhrough Cwide windows FpanelCessG
EmFragrances mFingle in a room full of Cshade
The peons pick FpartnCers Gand wCaltz 'cross the FceiClingG
But the vEmiolins wFhisper, "have I beenC betrayed'"
GTryin' not to lFook asGhamed. G7
Where the dCrunkards drink FdeeCply Gfrom Ccups full of noFthCin'G
It's Emghost-lover's lFaugh at the games that they Cplay
While the moments do FsummCersGaults Cinto etFerCniGty
EmCling to their cFoat-tails and beg them to sCtay
GSayin', " I Fgot nothin'G to hide&qG7uot;.
Where iCllusions projFectCed Gon wCalls made of tFifCfaGny
EmMad minuFets to a sad satin sCong
The harlequin mFandColGins Charmonize hFelpleCsslyG
EmHoping that eFndlessly won't last for Clong
GPrayin' that their gFod ain't dGied. G7
Then I tCurn and I sFee Cher Gin a drCess made of FmoonlCightG
EmTeardrops like dFiamonds slide slow down her fCace
And her arms they surrFound Cme lGike cChains made of FvelCvetG
And the Emdemons fall fFaithfully into their pClace
And the rGivers Frun with jGewels. G7
Now the mCorning lies FopeCn, tGhe nCight went quite FquickCly G
EmMemory haFrmlessly fractures and fCades
All the poets do pFush-Cups Gon cCarpets of FrubbCer fGoam
EmLoudly they lFaugh at some joke that's been mCade
And the wGise men sFpeak like Gfools. G7
