CAPO: 7th Fret

Am G C F Am G C F Am G

INTRO:

I followed far behind you

To the edge of Tinseltown

F C

Where the [Carnival ?] is open

F Dm

And the curtains falling down

Took a seat in the front row

You were there, up on the stage

F C

You were paying for their silver

F Dm Dm7 Dm Dm7

With your beauty and your rage

F C

I found you in the dressing room

F C

At peace with your disgrace

Am G C F

In the body of a messenger

Am G C F Am G

With Aphrodite's face

I reached out, but you ran away

When I caught your glimpse of hell

F C

But I lost you in the alleyway

F Dm

Where no one knows you well

If the times were not so killing

They'd lay flowers at your feet

F C

If the flesh were not so willing

F Dm

And the spirit not so weak

F C

They'd come to get your blessing

F C

When the gods hang up their [trace ?]

Am G C F

In the body of a messenger

Am G C F Am G C F Am G C

With Aphrodite's face

BRIDGE:

F Em

Imitation, worries skin deep

Dm Am

Imitation, go back to sleep

F Am

Love is so much deeper than this

Dm Am G C F Am G C F Am G

Hollow horn of emptiness

It's too soon to end your story

It's too late to take it back

F C

And all that's been made holy

F Dm

Can never be made hack

I'll unlace my ties that bind you

And my fingers from your hand

F C

Then I'll lose you 'til I find you

F Dm

From the woman in the man

F C

But your curse will be your blessing

F C

When the angel takes his place

Am G C F

In the body of a messenger

Am G C F Am G C

With Aphrodite's face
