Verse 2:
She tied my eyes with a ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
I gazed with troubled vision on an old four-poster bed

And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead,

Verse 3:
She gazed with a love and beauty, like a mother to a son,
Like live and die, and see and be, and all rolled into one,
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
The same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home,
Chorus, [tab].
Verse 4:
Then creeping on towards me with their lips with tongues of fire
A host of golden demons screaming "Lust!" and "Base desire!"
And when it seemed for certain that their screams could get no higher
I heard a voice above the rest, screaming "You're a liar!"
But it's alright, Lady Eleanor,
Alright, Lady Eleanor,
G A [E(bar7) Bm] <- ???
I'm alright here in your arms...
