G                 C              G
Your pentagram is down below our floor.
G                               D
Your naked body shimmers in the night.
G                         C           G
Dancing and chanting in a sacrificial rite.
G                                          D
Your feet are dry with the ashes from dead babies,
         C                         G
Who have passed the test just like all the rest,
    D
But never really understood the reasons why
                    C
They took it in the first place.
                G
Ah, in the first place. 

G                      C            G
Your feasty eyes won't make me fall apart.
                                                D
Your turquoise and silver won't weaken this old heart.
      G                         C           G
Yeah, dancing and chanting in a sacrificial rite.
                                       D
I fell to the ground on a windy, windy night.
            C                         G
Well I have passed the test just like all the rest,
    D
But never really understood the reasons why
                 C
I took it in the first place.
           G
Ah, in the first place. 

            C                         G
Well I have passed the test just like all the rest,
    D
But never really understood the reasons why
                 C
I took it in the first place.
           G
Ah, in the first place.
