Intro:
EC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Oh, the gentle-men are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
They're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide.
BAC#mAABBAC#mAAB
I live in a-nother world where life and death are me-morized,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Where the earth is strung with lovers' pearls and all I see are dark eyes.
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEA cock is cro-wing far away and ano-ther sol-dier's deep in prayer,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Some mo-ther's child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhere.
BAC#mAABBAC#mAAB
But I can hear a-nother drum beating for the dead that rise,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Whom na-ture's beast fears as they come and all I see are dark eyes.
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
They tell me to be discreet for all in-ten-ded purposes,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
They tell me re-venge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
BAC#mAABBAC#mAAB
But I feel no-thing for their game where beauty goes un-re-cognized,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Oh, the French girl, she's in paradise and a drun-ken man is at the wheel,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
Hun-ger pays a heavy price to the fall-ing gods of speed and steel.
BAC#mAABBAC#mAAB
Oh, Time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies,
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEA mill-ion fac-es at my feet but all I see are dark eyes.
EC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAEEC#mBC#mABEC#mBC#mAE
