[D] [E]
Let me [D] tell you a story [C] to chill the bones [D] about a thing [E] that I saw one [D] night
Wandering [A] in the
[C] Everglades
I'd [D] one drink, [E] but no.
[D] I was rambling enjoying [C] the bright moonlight
Gazing [D] up [E] at the stars
[D] Not aware of a presence [A] so near to [C] me
[D] watching my [E] every move
Feeling [Bm]
scared, [D] I fell to [C] my knees
Something [D] rushed me [Em] from the trees
Took [D] me to an [A] unholy place
[C] That is [D] where I fell [E] from grace
[D] And they summoned me [C] over to join in with them [D] to the dance of [Em] the dead
Into [D] the circle of fire [A] I followed [C] them into [D] the middle I [Em] was led
[E]
As [Bm] if [G] time [D] had stopped still [A] I was numb with fear, [C] but still [D] I
wanted [E] to do
[Bm] And [E]
[Bm] the blaze of [D] the fire did [A] no hurt upon [C] me
[D] As I walked on [E] to the coals
Then I [G] felt [D] I [A] was in a trance and [C] my spirit [D] was lifted [E] from me
and [Bm] if only
[D]
Someone had [A] the chance [C] to witness [D] what happened [E] to me
I
[Bm] [D] cried [A] and I sang with [C] them all [D] at [E] once
Lifeless [Bm] figures, [D] they [G] were all [A] dead and [C] me
[D] And I ascended [Em] from here

[D] [G] The [Am] priest that [D] lived was [G] laughing [E] down at me
He [D] [G]
[D] just danced in the circle [E] of [C]
[B] [E] fire
Until the [D] time [G] came to [D] reunite us both my spirit
[E] Chained myself to it
I [F#m] didn't know [G] what [Am] the life [D] against me [G] was
I [E] was running with [C] [Em] me
[A] [F#] My
[G] [E] [F#]
[Em] [G]
[Em] neck in a scaly [F#] scar
They could be a [G] bench and [E] away from me
But the truth they faced [F#] for me was the moment [Em] that I fled
I was like Elvis and I was [Bm] moving from behind that thin [Em] black bench
I clinked on a midnight [D] glass and looked straight [Em] ahead
[G] I [Am] walked
[D] through
[G]
the [Em] [E] [A]
[G] [D]
[E] [C] [E]
[D] [G] [D] circle of fire
and [Em]
I [A]
[G] [D] saw

you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed

When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your [F#] bed
And you wake when you can't take it [E] any further

But [D] I'll never go dancing [A] no more
[C] Till [D] I dance [E] with the [Em] dead
