[B][Baug][Am][Dm][Em][E][Am]
[G#dim][B][Baug][Am][Dm][Em][E][Am][G#dim][B][E][B][Dm]
By the [Am]turnstile beckons a damsel

[Verse 1]
[E]fair
[Dm]The face[Am] of Melinda neath blackened hair[E]
[Dm]No joy w[Am]ould flicker
[E]in her [Dm]eyes
[Am]Brooding sadness [Esus4]came to a[E][Dm][Am][Esus4][Am][E][Dm][Am][Esus4]
[Am]rise[E][Dm][Am][Esus4][Am][Dm][Am][E]
[Am][B][Baug][Em]

[Verse 2]
Words would falter [Am]to
[A]atone[Em]
Failure had passed the
[F#sus4]stepping s[F#m]tone
[Esus4]She had sworn [Em]her vows t[Am]o an[A]other
[Em]This [Am]is when no-one will will bo[Em]ther
[F#m]

[Verse 3]
[D]And conced[Am]ed pain
in crumbling [E]mirth[Am][Dm]
A [Am]harlot of God upon the [E]earth[Am]
[Dm]Found wher[Am]e she sacrificed
her [E]ways[Em]
[Dm]That hollow love[Am] in her face[E][Em][E]

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Am][Eaug][E][Dm]
[Am][E][Dm][Am][Eaug][E][Dm][Am][E][Am][C][B][Baug]
[Em]Still

[Verse 4]
I plotted to [Am]have her [A]back
[Em]The contentment that would
[F#sus4]fill the crack[F#m]
[Em]My soul released a flut[Am]tering [A]sigh
[Em]This [Am]day fell, the darkness nigh

[F][Gm][Am][Dm][F][Gm][Am][Dm][F][Gm][Am][Dm][F][Am][G#m]

[Verse 5]
I took her by the [G]hand to say
[F#m]All faith forever has
been [F]washed [G#m]away
I returned for you in [G]great [F#m]dismay
Come with me, far [F]away to [Am]stay[Dm][F]
[Gm][Am][Dm][F][Gm][Am]

[Verse 6]
[G#m]
Endlessly gazing in noc[G]turnal prime
[F#m]She spoke of her vices and broke
the [F]rhyme[G#m]
But baffled herself with the [G]final line
[F#m]My promise is made but my heart [F]is thine[Am][Dm]
