[Gb] [Db] Now [Gb] in [B] Vienna there's ten [Abm] pretty women
There's a shoulder [Ebm] where death [Abm] comes to cry
There's [E] a lobby with nine [Gb] hundred windows
[E] There's a tree where the [Ebm] doves [Dbm] go [B] to die

In [E] some hallway where [Ebm] love's [Dbm] never [B] [Eb] been
A [Abm] loft bed where [Eb] the moon has [Abm] been sweeping

In [E] the midst of some [B] sweet [Dbm]
[B] afternoon
[Eb] And [Abm] I'll see what [Eb] you've changed to [Abm] your sorrow
All your [Dbm] sheep and [Ab] your lilies of [Dbm] snow
