Lady Eleanor ( Alan Hull )
------------
Capo on 7th
Intro: Am*, Em* 12 x
1.)
Banshee playing magician sitting lotus on the floor,
* *
Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw.
* *
Had my share of nightmares, didn't think there could be much more,
* *
then in walked Roderick Usher with the Lady Eleanor.
*
2.)
She tied my eyes with ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
* *
I gazed with trouble vision on an old four poster bed.
* *
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
* *
and bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead.
*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
* *
All right, Lady Eleanor
* *
I'm all right where I am.
3.)
She gazed with loving beauty like a mother to a son,
* *
like living, dying, seeing, being all rolled into one.
* *
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
* *
the same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home.
*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
* *
All right, Lady Eleanor
* *
I'm all right where I am.
4.)
Then creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire
* *
a host of golden demons screaming lust and base desire
* *
and when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher
* *
I heard a voice above the rest screaming "You're a liar".
*
Chorus:
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
* *
All right, Lady Eleanor
* *
I'm all right where I am.
