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

But it's al - right, Lady Eleanor,

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, [tab].
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...
