Verse


D5                       A5
  Lady weeping at the crossroads, 
B5                      F#5
   Would you meet your love 
G5     G5                D5          B5
  In twilight with his greyhounds, 
G5          G5             D5     A5
  And the hawk upon his glove? 

D5                              A5
  Bribe the bird then on the branches, 
B5                   F#5
   Bribe them to be dumb, 
G5           G5              D5     B5
  Stare the hot sun out of heaven 
G5          G5         D5
  That the night may come. 


Chorus

C#5          F#5                B5
    Starless are the nights of travel, 
                  E5
Bleak the winter wind; 
          A5            D5
Run with terror all before you 
              C#5
And regret behind. 
       F#5              B5
Run until  you hear the ocean's 
             E5
Everlasting cry; 
            A5              D5
Deep though it may be and bitter 
                  F#5
You must drink it dry, 
          A5
Drink it dry 


Verse

D5 - A5 - B5 - F#5
G5 - G5 - D5 - B5
G5 - G5 - D5

Wear out patience in the lowest 
Dungeons of the sea, 
Searching through the stranded shipwrecks 
For the golden key, 

Push on to the world's end, pay the 
Dread guard with a kiss 
Cross the rotten bridge that totters 
Over the abyss. 


Chorus

C#5 - F#5 - B5
E5 - A5 - D5
C#5 - F#5 - B5
E5 - A5 - D5
F#5 - A5

There stands the deserted castle 
Ready to explore; 
Enter, climb the marble staircase, 
Open the locked door. 

Cross the silent empty ballroom 
Doubt and anger past; 
Blow the cobwebs from the mirror, 
See yourself at last. 


Verse

D5 - A5 - B5 - F#5
G5 - G5 - D5 - B5
G5 - G5 - D5

Put your hand behind the wainscot, 
You have done your part; 
Find the penknife there and plunge it 
Into your false heart


Please rate thanks!!


Lyrics:

Lady weeping at the crossroads, 
Would you meet your love 
In twilight with his greyhounds, 
And the hawk upon his glove? 

Bribe the bird then on the branches, 
Bribe them to be dumb, 
Stare the hot sun out of heaven 
That the night may come. 

Starless are the nights of travel, 
Bleak the winter wind; 
Run with terror all before you 
And regret behind. 

Run until you hear the ocean's 
Everlasting cry; 
Deep though it may be and bitter 
You must drink it dry, 

Wear out patience in the lowest 
Dungeons of the sea, 
Searching through the stranded shipwrecks 
For the golden key, 

Push on to the world's end, pay the 
Dread guard with a kiss 
Cross the rotten bridge that totters 
Over the abyss. 

There stands the deserted castle 
Ready to explore; 
Enter, climb the marble staircase, 
Open the locked door. 

Cross the silent empty ballroom 
Doubt and anger past; 
Blow the cobwebs from the mirror, 
See yourself at last. 

Put your hand behind the wainscot, 
You have done your part; 
Find the penknife there and plunge it 
Into your false heart
