Lindisfarne - Lady Eleanor

Em, Bm

Verse 1:

Em                         Bm
Nasty fey magicians sit in lotus on the floor
Em                               Bm
Belly-dancing beauties and their power-laden swords
Em                            Bm
Hide my                didn't think it could be much more
     G            A             Bm   .   .   .  <- fade 
When in walked         with the Lady Eleanor.


Verse 2:

She tied my eyes with a ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
I gazed with troubled vision on an old four-poster bed
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead,


Chorus:

         G    A               Bm
But it's al - right, Lady Eleanor,
G    A               Bm
Al - right, Lady Eleanor,
G     A             E   Esus4  E  Esus4
I'm alright where I am.


Verse 3:

She gazed with a love and beauty, like a mother to a son,
Like live and die, and see and be, and all rolled into one,
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
The same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home,


Chorus


Verse 4:

Then creeping on towards me with their lips with tongues of fire
A host of golden demons screaming "Lust!" and "Base desire!"
And when it seemed for certain that their screams could get no higher
I heard a voice above the rest, screaming "You're a liar!"


But it's alright, Lady Eleanor,
Alright, Lady Eleanor,
G     A                 [E(bar7)   Bm]  <- ???
I'm alright here in your arms....
