Song:

5    5      -6     -6     -6  -6   6    -4
The clock strikes twelve, the moondrops burst

 

-5 -5   5   -4   4    -4 5    5      
Out at you from their hiding place

 

5    5-6  -6  -6 -6 -6 -6 6      -4
Like acid and oil on a madman's face

 

4   -5 -5   5    4  -4  5 5
His reason tends to fly away

 

-5   5 -5    5   -5    4    4
Like lesser birds on four winds

 

5    5 -5    5      -4  5   
Like silver scrapes in May

 

5    5  -6   -6    -6 -6  6  -4
And now the sand's become a crust

 

-5   -5  5   4   -4   5 5
Most of you have gone away

 

 

 

5    5 -6   -6    -6   -6   6  -4
Come Susie dear, let's take a walk

 

-5   -5   5    4-4   5    5      
Just out there upon the beach

 

5  5   -6 -6  -6  -6  -6  6
I know you'll soon be married

 

-4    4    -5   -5  5     4    -4    5    5
And you'll want to know where winds come from

 

-5  -5   5 -5   5  -5   4
But it's never said at all

 

-5  5  5   -5    5 -4   5
On the map that Carrie reads

 

5 -6   -6  -6    -6   -6     6   -4
Behind the clock back there you know

 

-5 -5   5    4    -4
At the Four Winds Bar

 

 

 

-5    5    5    5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

 

 

 

-6    -6   -6 -7   -6   -6   -6
Four winds at the Four Winds Bar

 

-7   -7    -6     7  -6 -6    -6
Two doors locked and windows barred

 

-6  -6   -6   7  -6   -6  -6
One door left to take you in

 

-6  -7 -7 -7   7    -6 -6  -6
The other one just mirrors it

 

  

 

5     5   5    5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

 


5  -6 -6    -6    7  -6 -6 -6
In Hellish glare and inference

 

-6  -7-7   -7   7 -6 -6 -6
The other one's a duplicate

 

-6   -6 -6   -6   7-6-6    -6
The Queenly flux, eternal light

 

-7 -7   -7    7   -6 -6  -6
Or the light that never warms

 

-7  -6  -6    -6  -6 -6   -6 76   -6
Yes the light that never,  never  warms

 

-6 -6  -6    -6   -6 -6
Or the light that never

 

6 -5   6
Never warms

 

6 -5   6
Never warms

 

6 -5  6 5
Never warms

 

 

 

5    5      -6     -6    -6   -6   6    -4
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst

 

-5 -5   5   -4   4    -4 5    5      
Out at you from their hiding place

 

5    5 -6   -6    -6  -6 6   -4
Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear

 

4     -5    -5  5     4   -4   5    5
Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar

 

 

 

-5   -5  5-5   -5  4   4 4
It's the nexus of the crisis

 

-5  5   5-5-5  -4   5
And the origin of storms

 

5    -6  -6   -6   -6  6 -4
Just the place to hopelessly

 

-5 -5 -5   5    4   4   -4   5
Encounter time and then came me

 

 

 

-5    5    5    5
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

 

 

 

-6  -6  -6 -7 -7 -6
Call me  Desdinova

 

-7 6 6   -6
Eternal light

 

-6    -6 -6   -6  -7  -6
These gravely digs of mine

 

-6   -7 -7   -7  -6  7
Will surely prove a sight

 

-6  -6    -6 -6 -7  -6
And don't forget my dog

 

-7    -7  -7 6 -6
Fixed and consequent

 

-6 -6- 6 -6 -6  -6
 Astronomy...a star (x2)

-6 -6 -6- 6 -6  -7 7
 Astronomy...a  star (x2)
