    Am
On the back of his head
Em
he had another face
Am
Was it a woman's face
      B7
or a young girl?


       Am
They said to remove it would kill him
          B7
So poor Edward was doomed

        Am
That face could laugh and cry
Em
It was his devil twin
Am
At night she spoke to him
           B7
Things heard only in hell


     Am
They were impossible to separate
           B7
Chained together for life


      Am
Finally the bell tolled his doom
Em
He took a suite of rooms
Am
And hung himself and her
         B7
from the balcony irons


      Am
Some still believe he was freed from her
          B7
But I knew her too well
     Am
I say she drove him to suicide
            B7
And took poor Edward to hell


(It's nice to disolve the dominant (
