[Em][G]
[Am][F][Em][G][Am][F]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Stood there leaning to [G]the city moon,
Casting [Am]silhouettes tall to [F]grip
her white rooms
[Em]The black- clad voyeur in his
[G]black- clad masque
In the [Am]serpentine sun of [F]tragedy basked

[Interlude 1]
[Em][D][C]
[Em][Am][C][D][Em][D][C][Em][Am][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Stood there cursing at
[G]the soul- dead mass
With their [Am]fabled illusions,
the [F]vain dreams that passed
[Em]Splinters of a life rushing [G]by in the whirl
[Am]Alone, silent warrior [F]in a fantasy world
[Em][D][C][Em][Am]

[Verse 3]
[C][D]
He cried for [Em]night[D]
but n[C]ight could n[Em]ot come
So, swept in [Am]the shroud [C]of [D]misanthropia he went awa[Em]y[G][Em][G]
[C][G][F#][Em][F#5][Em][G][Em][G][C][G][F#5][Em][F#5][Em]
And fed the empty [G]galleries
With the [Am]artifacts [F]of the black rain
[Em]Sunken into the shad[G]ows with a dry[Am],
[F]sardonic smile
[Em][D][C][Em][Am]

[Verse 4]
[C][D]
He made [Em]the foot[D]prints
a [C]part of [Em]his heart
To rouse [Am]a sacred [C]con[D]fro[Em]ntation

[Interlude 2]

[Am][F][Em][G][Am][F]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Stood there carving on
[G]the monument to [Am]lies[F]
[Em]Digging of the [G]Earth,
making [Am]friends with the [F]soil
As the [Em]all- mother rises and
bares her bleeding thighs
[C]He disappears into [G]her cold,
icy wom[Em]b

[Outro 1]
