[G]
My heart is telling [D] me [G] I love you still
I can see [D] the turning of [Em] the key
[C] I've been deceived [G] by the clown [D] inside of me
I [Bm] thought that he was righteous but [C] he's vain
[G]
Oh but something's telling [D] me [G] I wear the ball and chain
My patron saint is fighting [Em] with a ghost
[C] He's always off [G] somewhere when [D] I need him most
The [Bm] Spanish moon is rising [C] on the hill
[G] But my heart is telling [D] me [G] I love you still
I come back to town [D] from [G] the flaming moon
[C] I see you [G] in the streets I [D] begin to swoon
I [Bm] love to see you dress [C] before the mirror
[G] Won't you let me in your room one time before I finally disappear?
[D] Everybody's wearing a [G] [Em] disguise
Behind what [G] they've been left [D] behind their eyes
[Bm] But me, I can't cover [C] what I am
[G] Where are the children [D] go?
[G] I must follow them
I march in the [D] parade of [Em] liberty
But [C] as long as I [G] love you I'm [D] not free
[Bm] How long must I suffer [C] such abuse?
[G] Won't you let me see [D] you smile [C] before I [G] turn you loose?
I've given [D] up the game [Em] I've got to leave
[C] This pot of [G] gold is only [D] make [Bm]-believe
A treasure can't be found [C] by men who search
[G] Whose gods are dead [D] and whose queens [G] are in the church
We sat in [D] an empty theater [Em] and we kissed
[C] I asked you [G] please to cross me off [D] your list
[Bm] My head tells me it's time [C] to make a change
[G] But my heart [C] is [G] [D] telling me I [C] love [G] you but you're strange
I [D] [Em]
[C] [G] [D] love [Bm] you
One [C]
[G] [C] [G] [D] [C] [G]
more [D] time at midnight [Em] near the wall
[C] Take off your [G] heavy makeup [D] and your shawl
[Bm] Won't you descend from the throne [C] from where you sit?
[G] Let me feel your love [D] one more time before [C] I [G] abandon [C] it
[G] [D]
[Em] [C] [G]
[D] [Bm] My
