Lady Eleanor ( Alan Hull )
------------
Capo on 7th
Intro: Am*, Em* 12 x
1.)
Banshee playing magician sitting lotus on the floor,
Am* Em*
Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw.
Am* Em*
Had my share of nightmares, didn't think there could be much more,
Am* Em*
then in walked Roderick Usher with the Lady Eleanor.
C D Em*
2.)
She tied my eyes with ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
Am* Em*
I gazed with trouble vision on an old four poster bed.
Am* Em*
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
Am* Em*
and bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead.
C D Em*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
All right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
I'm all right where I am.
G D A
3.)
She gazed with loving beauty like a mother to a son,
Am* Em*
like living, dying, seeing, being all rolled into one.
Am* Em*
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
Am* Em*
the same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home.
C D Em*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
All right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
I'm all right where I am.
G D A
4.)
Then creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire
Am* Em*
a host of golden demons screaming lust and base desire
Am* Em*
and when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher
Am* Em*
I heard a voice above the rest screaming "You're a liar".
C D Em*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
All right, Lady Eleanor
C D G* Em*
I'm all right where I am.
