VERSE: (other guitar plays opening riff)
     A augmentedA       C majorC        A augmentedA       C majorC
    Down in the graveyard where we have our tryst,

       A augmentedA      C majorC      A augmentedA      C majorC
    The air smells sweet, the air smells sick.

    A augmentedA      C majorC       A augmentedA       C majorC
    He never smiles, his mouth merely twists,

       A augmentedA       C majorC       A augmentedA       C majorC
    The breath in my lungs feels clinging and thick.

      A augmentedA       C majorC         A augmentedA    C majorC
    But I know his name, he's called Mister D.

       A augmentedA       C majorC         A augmentedA     C majorC
    And one of these days he's gonna set you free.

     A augmentedA    C majorC          A augmentedA         C majorC
    Human skulls is hangin' right 'round his neck,

       A augmentedA       C majorC      A augmentedA     C majorC
    The palms of my hands is clammy and wet.


CHORUS:       A augmentedA    G+G    C majorC     A augmentedA
    Lord, I was dancin', dancin' dancin' so free,
     A augmentedA     G+G     C majorC      A augmentedA
    Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free.

     A augmentedA     G+G         C majorC     A augmentedA
    Dancin', Lord, keep your hands off me,

     A augmentedA       G+G     C majorC  A augmentedA
    Dancin' with Mister D.,

    A augmentedA       A augmentedA  G+G  C majorC  A augmentedA
    With Mr. D.,

    A augmentedA       A augmentedA  G+G  C majorC  A augmentedA
    With Mr. D.

VERSE:
    Will it be poison, put in my glass,
    Will it be slow or will it be fast'
    The bite of a snake, the sting of a spider,
    A augmentedA drink of Belladonna on a Toussaint night.
    Hiding in a corner in New York City,
    Lookin' down a forty four in West Virginia.

CHORUS:

VERSE:
   One night I was dancin' with a lady in black,
   Wearin' black silk gloves and a black silk hat.
   She looked at me longin' with black velvet eyes,
   She gazed at me strange all cunning and wise.
   Then I saw the flesh just fall off her bones,
   The eyes in her skull was burning like coals.
   Lord, have mercy, fire and brimstone.
   I was dancin' with Misses D.


CHORUS:
   Lord, I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free,
   I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free.
   Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free.

   Dancin', dancin'. -- fade out
