Bb/D The scent grows C6 richer
he Bb6 knows he must be Am7 near,
He Eb/G finds a long F6 passageway lit by Gm/E chandelier.

Bb/D Each step he takes, the C6 perfumes change
from fa-Bb6 miliar fragrance to Am7 flavours strange
Eb/G A magnificent F6 chamber meets his Em7 eye Ebmaj7

Inter Gm Cm7 Bb Cm7 Dm7 Ebmaj7

Bb/D Inside, a long C6 rose-water pool
is Bb6 shrouded by fine Am7 mist
Eb/G Stepping in the moist F6 silence,
with a Gm/E warm breeze he’s gently kissed

Bb/D Thinking he is C6 quite alone,
he Bb6 enters the room, as if it Am7 were his own
But Eb/G ripples on the F6 sweet pink water
Re-Gm/E veal some company un-Em thought of

Bm Rael G stands as-Bm7 tonished
G doubting his A6 sight
Struck by Gmaj7 beauty, gripped in D fright
Bm Three ver-G milion Bm7 snakes of G female A6 face
The smallest Gmaj7 motion, filled with D grace D E

F#m Muted C#m melodies
E fill the Bmaj7 echoing C# hall,
F#m But there C#m is no E sign of Bmaj7 warning
E in the B2 siren’s C# call:

F#m Rael C#m welcome, G#m we are the Ebm Lamia
Bbm of the Fm po-Cm Gm ol
G# We have been Eb waiting G# for our Eb waters
to Fm bring you Cm cool Fm C Dm A Dm A7-4 A

Bb/D Putting fear be-C6 side him
he Bb6 trusts in beauty Am7 blind
He Eb/G slips into the F6 nectar,
leaving his Gm/E shredded clothes behind.

Bb/D With their tongues, they C6 test
taste and judge Bb6 all that is Am7 mine
They Eb/G move in a F6 series of caresses
that Em7 glide up and down my Ebmaj7 spine

Inter Gm Cm7 Bb Cm7 Dm7 Ebmaj7

Bb/D As they nibble the C6 fruit of my flesh
Bb6 I feel no Am7 pain
Eb/G Only a F6 magic that a Gm/E name would stain

Bb/D With the first drop of my C6 blood in their veins
Their Bb6 faces are convulsed in Am7 mortal pains
The Eb/G fairest cries We F6 all have loved you Gm/E Rael Em

Bm Each G empty Bm7 snakelike G body A6 floats
Silent Gmaj7 sorrow in empty D boats.
Bm A G sickly Bm7 sourness G fills the A6 room
The bitter Gmaj7 harvest of a dying D bloom D E

F#m Looking for C#m motion
I E know I Bmaj7 will not C# find,
I F#m stroke the C#m curls now E turning Bmaj7 pale,
in E which I’d B2 lain en-C# twined

F#m Oh C#m Lamia, your G#m flesh that re-Ebm mains
I will Bbm take as my Fm foo-Cm Gm od
G# It is the Eb scent of G# garlic that Eb lingers
on my Fm chocolate Cm fingers Fm C Dm A Dm A7-4 A

Instr. D7-2 Cmaj7 x 3 Cmaj7/A Cm11

Bb/D Looking be-C6 hind me, the Bb6 water turns icy Am7 blue
The Eb/G lights are dimmed
and F6 once again the Gm/E stage is set for you
