<verse 1>
You wouldn't believe in my new belle,
she flits and weaves a mysterious spell,
and under my skin is the place where she resides.

<verse 2>
Finding a release in prayers and psalms,
I will obay her articulate commands,
She's just a coquette and how I wish I could forget 

<CHORUS>
F                               Am
Breathing new life into the sad witch and she promised me three 
G                                   F
wishes and all I wish is she should remain here
F                                          Am
A poisonous saint with a brittle, crippled frame and she fooled me with her motherly 
G                                F
gestures, my only guess is she’s misguided. 

<Verse 3>
The sins, the sins the heavenly limbs that greet below the red, red lights, 
Hold no sway with me now she’s my intended. 
The jewels around her neck retain a curious sheen, god is in my heart and tearing at the seams, 
Her atheist tracts are certainly persuading. 

<CHORUS> x 2

<BRIDGE>
F(*1)                         Am(*2)               G(*3)                              F(*1)
and I don’t know, and I don’t want to know, if she floats or drowns, if she floats or drowns
F(*1)                         Am(*2)               G(*3)                           F(*1)
and I don’t know, if she floats or drowns, if she floats or drowns, drowns, drowns ...

<CHORUS> x2


end on a C
