Original Sin - Elton John

	D
oh its carnival night
		G/E......G/D		A
and they're stringin the lights around you
		D/B		G/E........G/D	   A
hangin paper angels painting little devils on the roof
	D		    G/E......G/D	     A
oh the furnace wind is a flickerin of wings about your face
		D/B		G/E..           ...G/D	    A
in a cloud of innocence yeah it smells like heaven in this place

	G			       A		       A/F#
i cant eat, cant sleep still i hunger for you when you look at me
	G				A
that face those eyes all the simple pleasures deep inside

chorus:
	D	     A			Bm		F#m
tell me how you know now, the ways and means of gettin in
		G	     A			D	A
underneath my skin you were always my original sin
A	D		A	     Bm	    F#m
tell me why i shut up inside every time we begin
		G		   A		    D
this dangerous game, oh you were always my original sin

D.......Em..F#m....A...............
D.......Em..F#m....A...............

	    D		G/E......G/D	   A
i dream of flying the moment that you open up your eyes
		     D/B		G/E......G/D	   A
the dream is just a rhythm goes from every corner of your life
	    D		    G/E......G/D	A
up in the balcony all the romeos are pleadin for your hand
		D/B		G/E......G/D	      A
blowin theatre kisses reciting lines they don't understand

	G				A
i cant eat, cant sleep still i hunger for you when you look at me
	G				A
that face those eyes all the simple pleasures deep inside
