G                        Am  
Dressed in velvet in the limelight
D                           G
She beckoned me from marble stairs
G                     Am7 
Long ago with all the dreamers
D                       G
I fell into her emerald spell

A thousand silver songs that filled the air
Rosary the worry beads of care
I should have understood
The queen of hearts
Played to win right from the start

Dressed in velvet in the limelight
She beckoned me from marble stairs
Long ago with all the dreamers
I fell into her emerald spell

Instrumental: Em7

The dice were loaded, knew I was ensnared
Fingers turned to talons in my hair
A rusted door inside a golden cage
A broken chord, a bird that flew away

Dressed in velvet in the limelight
She beckoned me from marble stairs
Long ago with all the dreamers
I fell into her emerald spell

Guitar Instrumental: E5, D5, then F#5, G#5 fade on F#
Repeat Intro, end on Em
