Once was a 🏷Legend of old

In the time of days long ago

The clattering beat of a horse on the street

He appeared from the fog like a ghost

I could feel him heading this way
      G      C
A storm was filling the air

Who appears from out of the mist

With a crack of a whip and a wave of his fist
    F     E7   Am
He was cursed and I was bewitched

Haunted by seeing his face
          G       C
Through the mirror, smoke and the haze
F     G        Am   G
So hard to see through the dark mystery
   F     E7     Am
The illusion was part of his game

And make sure when it knocks at your door
   F      G     Am    G
It'll be what you need, not some fantasy
     F      E7  Am
That will haunt you forever more

Let it be what you need, not some fantasy
     F      E7  Am
That will haunt you forever more
