Dorian Gray Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Live
through the ages
Witness my friends [Am]rust and turn to ash
[Dm]Break down in phases
And yet my [Am]skin is perfect glass

[Verse 2]
I have [Dm]kept this portrait in pristine care
I have [Am]kept my secret well
Until the [Dm]day comes when the loneliness
Is, [Am]oh, too much to bear

[Verse 3]
Would you em[F]brace me
with open arms?
Would you en[E]case me in a
[E5]picture [E]of my heart?

[Verse 4]
[Dm]Dorian Gray, already headed to hell
Take me [F]away,
pick a side and place [Am]a bet
Dorian Gray,
have you something to [Dm]sell?

[Interlude 1]
I've got your bodice and your dress
[Dm][Am]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Turn back the time
To the fearless boy I [Am]was so long ago
[Dm]She is love, she is filth
[Am]She can destroy my soul

[Verse 6]
Would you em[F]brace me
with open arms?
Would you en[E]case me in a
picture [E5]of m[E]y he[Dm]art?

[Verse 7]
Dorian Gray, already [Dm]headed to hell
Take me [F]away,
pick a side and place a bet
[Am]Dorian Gray, have you something to [Dm]sell?

[Verse 8]
I've got your bodice and your dress
[Dm]Dorian Gray, already headed to hell
Take me [F]away, pick a side and place a bet
[Am]Dorian Gray,
have you something to [Dm]sell?

[Interlude 2]
I've got your bodice and your dress
[Dm]

[Verse 9]
Intellect in itself is a mode [Dm]of exaggeration
An artist should create
beautiful things
But should put nothing of
his own life into them

[Verse 10]
The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to [Dm]it
If the cave man had known
how to laugh
History would have been different

[Verse 11]
I have kept my portrait [Dm]clean
I have kept my [Am]secret [Dm]well
Now the day has come
[Gm]The sun has burned [Dm]away
Follow me, follow me,
follow me, follow me

[Verse 12]
[Dm]Dorian Gray, already headed to hell
Take me [F]away, pick a side and place a bet
[Dm]Dorian G[Am]ray,
have you something to [Dm]sell?

[Outro 1]
I've got your bodice and your dress
[Dm]
