🤘 Verse 1:
F#5                                         E5
Welcoming the virgins fair, to live a noble life
F#5                                              A5
In the castle known to all, the Count's infernal wife
F#5                                          E5
She invites the peasants with endless lavish foods
F#5                                                         A5
But when evening spreads its wings, she rapes them of their blood

🤘 Verse 2:
F#5                                               E5
All day long the virgins sit and feast on endless meals
F#5                                                            A5
The Countess laughs and sips her wine, her skin doth crack and peel
F#5                                                E5
But when nighttime fills the air, one must pay the price
F#5                                                            A5
The Countess takes her midnight bath with blood that once gave life

F#5                                                     E5
Living in her self styled Hell, the Countess dressed in black
F#5                                                       A5
Life's so distant, death's so near, no blood to turn time back
F#5                                                      E5
The castle walls are closing in, she's crippled now with age
F#5                                                 A5
Welcomes death with open arms, the Reaper turns the page

C#5 A5 B5 G5  C#5 A5 B5 G5
