[Verse 3]
In the [C]gloomy light,
[G]I see an alt[Bb]ar in whi[B]te[Baug]
[B]Oh, [C]what is it [G]for? It

I hear the [C]Master's voice,
[Dm]magic words from ancie[F]nt times[Am]
I'm feeling [C]strange inside
[F]Oh, as if som[Em]ething has taken my min[Am]d

To him my [C]soul is gold
[F]Trading souls with this Dem[Em]on
is something he knows
As well as [Bb]Hell
[Em]Magic life, is [D#m]his re[D]turn
[Em]Pain, in my [Bb]skin, [Em]sin
I feel some kind of [D#m]Magic, [Dm]in side
