INTRO: A D A -- 3x's
VERSE:
LA RE LA
The queen of the Nile
LA RE LA
She laid on her throne
MI
And she was drifting downstream
LA RE LA
On a barge that was burnished with g-o-ld
LA RE LA
Royal purple the sails
LA RE LA
So sweetly perfumed
MI
And poor Mark Antony's
Senses were drowned
LA RE LA
And his future was doomed
CHORUS
MI MI7 LA RE LA
He was blinded by love
VERSE:
The Philistines paid
For Samson's blind rage
The secrets that two lovers share
Should never have been betrayed
CHORUS
He was blinded by love
He was blinded by love
BREAK:
DO#m LA
Now it's no use in crying or weeping
DO#m DO# RE
You better lock up your soul for safe keeping
MI LA RE LA
Promise me
VERSE:
The poor Prince of Wales
He gave up his crown
All for the trivial pursuit of
A parvenu second-hand lady
So lovers beware
If you lose your heart
Careful now, don't lose your mind
Don't mortgage your soul to a stranger
CHORUS
Don't be blinded by love
Don't be blinded by love
INSTRUMENTAL: play A D A -- like first two lines of VERSE
CHORUS
Blinded by love
Blinded by love
OUTRO: A D A -- until fade out
