Key: D
Introduction:
Am
The guests are stood in silence
F Am
They stare and drink their wine
On the wall the canvas hangs
C E7
Frozen there in time
C G
They marvel at the beauty
Am F
The horror and despair
Am
At the wake of the Medusa
C Am
No one shed a tear
C G
Sit my friends and listen
Am F
Put your glasses down
C G
Sit my friends and listen
Am
To the voices of the drowned
Am
In the moonlight's ghostly glow
F Am
I waken in a dream
Once more upon that raft I stand
C E7
Upon a raging sea
C G
In my ears the moans and screams
Am F
Of the dying ring
Am
Somewhere in the darkness
C Am
The siren softly sings
C G
Out there in the waves she stands
Am F
And smiling there she calls
C G
As the lightning cracks the sky
Am
The wind begins to howl
Am
The architects of our doom
F Am
Around their tables sit
And in their thrones of power
C E7
Condemn those they've cast adrift
C G
Echoes down the city street
Am F
Their harpies laughter rings
Am
Waiting for the curtain call
C Am
Oblivious in the wings
C G
The casket is empty
Am F
Abandon ye all hope
C G
They ran off with the money
Am
And left us with the rope
