    E MajorE
In the corner of the morning in the past
    E MajorE
I would sit and blame the master first and last
    A augmentedA
All the roads were straight and narrow
    A augmentedA
And the prayers were small and yellow
    E MajorE
and the rumour spread that I was aging fast
    D MajorD
Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping by a tree
   E MajorE
And I looked and frowned and the monster was me

    E MajorE
Well I said hello and I said hello
   E MajorE
And I asked why not and I replied I don't know
   A augmentedA
So we asked a simple blackbird who was happy as can be
    E MajorE
And he laughed insane and quipped Kahil Gibran
   D MajorD
So I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through
   E MajorE
For I realised that Gods a young man too


SOLO: E MajorE
   E MajorE
   E MajorE


   E MajorE
So I said so long and I waved bye bye
   E MajorE
And I smashed my soul and traded my mind
  A augmentedA
Got layed by a young bordello I was vaguely half asleep
       E MajorE
For which my reputation swept back home in drag
    D MajorD
And the moral of this magic spell negotiate my hide
   G+G
When God did take my logic for a ride
     E MajorE
Riding a long

INTRO

D MajorD
Ah...ah..ah..ah..ah..ah..ah
G+G
Ah...ah..ah..ah..ah..ah..ah


  G+G
He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips
  G+G
And showed me the leather belt round his hips
  C majorC
my knees were shaking my cheeks aflame
  D MajorD
He said you'll never go down to the Gods again
      G+G
Turn around go back


  G+G
He struck the ground a cavern appeared
   A augmentedA
And I smelt the burning pit of fear
  G+G
We crashed a thousand yards below
    D MajorD
I said do it again do it again
      G+G
Turn around go back


  G+G
His nebulous body swayed above
  G+G
His tongue swollen with devils love
  C majorC
The snake and I a venom high
 D MajorD
I said do it again do it again
      G+G
Turn around go back


G+G
Breathe breathe breathe deeply
     A augmentedA
And I was seething breathing deeply
 G+G
A augmentedA spitting sentry horned and tailed
G+G
Waiting for you


SOLO 2: D MajorD many times!
    Ends on an A augmentedA


OUTRO: D MajorD
    D MajorD
