Here is the full song with lyrics and chords. Its actually pretty simple.
Just listen to the song for the rhytm.



			       
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
			      
Out at you from their hiding place
			
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
     			
His reason tends to fly away

			   
Like lesser birds on the four winds
			
Like silver scrapes in May
			
Now the sands become a crust
			
And most of you have gone away

				
Come Susy dear, let's take a walk
			
Just out there upon the beach
			
I know you'll soon be married
					
And you want to know where the winds come from

			
Well it's never said at all
			
On the map that Carrie reads
			
Behind the clock back there you know
		   
At the four winds bar


[#]Em - D - C - Em [#]

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Four winds at the four winds bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One door let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
Hey, hey, hey, hey


In hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
Or the light that never, never warms


				
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
			
Out at you from their hiding place
			
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
					
Would find themselves at the four winds bar

			
It's the nexus of the crisis
		
The origin of storms
			
Just the place to hopelessly
			    
Encounter time and then came me
Hey, hey, hey, hey



[#]Em - D - C - Em [#]

Call me Desdenova, eternal light
These gravely digs of mine
Will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent

Astronomy...a star
