[Intro]
[Skipped first piano solo]
A E D A D A B7 E A E D A D E A
A A6sus Amaj7sus2 D5 C5 B5 A x2
[Verse 1]
A E D A
Thro’ the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber,
D A B7 E
Past the wan-moon’d abysses of night,
A E D A
I have liv’d o’er my lives without number,
D E A
I have sounded all things with my sight;
A E D A
And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak,
D E A x2 A6sus x2
being driven to madness with fright.
[Chorus]
A E D A
I have whirl’d with the earth at the dawning,
D A B7 E
When the sky was a vaporous flame;
A E D A
I have seen the dark universe yawning,
D E A
Where the black planets roll without aim;
[Interlude]
F#m B7
Where they roll in their horror unheeded
F#m B7 E D A/C# E7
without knowledge or lustre or name.
[Chorus]
A E D A
I had drifted o’er seas without ending,
D A B7 E
Under sinister grey-clouded skies
A E D A
That the many-fork’d lightning is rending,
D E A
That resound with hysterical cries;
[Verse Style]
A E D A
With the moans of invisible daemons
D E A
that out of the green waters rise.
[Interlude]
A A6sus Amaj7sus2 D5 C5 B5 A x2
[Verse 2]
A E D A
I have plung’d like a deer thro’ the arches
D A B7 E
Of the hoary primordial grove,
A E D A
Where the oaks feel the presence that marches
D E A x2 A6sus x2
And stalks on where no spirit dares rove;
[Cut] And I flee from a thing that surrounds me, and leers thro’ dead branches
above.
[Chorus]
A E D A
I have stumbled by cave-ridden mountains
D A B7 E
That rise barren and bleak from the plain,
A E D A
I have drunk of the fog-foetid fountains
D E A
That ooze down to the marsh and the main;
[Interlude]
F#m B7
And in hot cursed tarns I have seen
F#m B7 E D A/C# E7
things I care not to gaze on again.
[Verse 3]
A E D A
I have scann’d the vast ivy-clad palace,
D A B7 E
I have trod its untenanted hall,
A E D A
Where the moon writhing up from the valleys
D E A
Shews the tapestried things on the wall;
A E D A
Strange figures discordantly woven
D E A x2 A6sus x2
which I cannot endure to recall.
[Chorus]
A E D A
I have peer’d from the casement in wonder
D A B7 E
At the mouldering meadows around,
A E D A
At the many-roof’d village laid under
D E A
The curse of a grave-girdled ground;
[Cut - And from rows of white urn-carven marble I listen intently for sound.]
[Solo]

[Chorus]
A E D A
I have haunted the tombs of the ages,
D A B7 E
I have flown on the pinions of fear
A E D A
Where the smoke-belching Erebus rages,
D E A
Where the jokulls loom snow-clad and drear:
A E D A
And in realms where the sun of the desert
D E A
consumes what it never can cheer.
[Interlude]
A A6sus A maj7sus2 D5 C5 B5 A x2
[Verse 4]
A E D A
I was old when the Pharaohs first mounted
D A B7 E
The jewel-deck’d throne by the Nile;
A E D A
I was old in those epochs uncounted
D E A x2 A6sus x2
When I, and I only, was vile;
[Chorus]
A E D A
Oh, great was the sin of my spirit,
D A B7 E
And great is the reach of its doom;
A E D A
Not the pity of Heaven can cheer it,
D E A
Nor can respite be found in the tomb:
[Interlude]
F#m B7
Down the infinite aeons
F#m B7 E D A/C# E7
come beating the wings of unmerciful gloom.
[Chorus]
A E D A
Thro’ the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber,
D A B7 E
Past the wan-moon’d abysses of night,
A E D A
I have liv’d o’er my lives without number,
D E A
I have sounded all things with my sight;
A E D A
And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak
D E A
being driven to madness with fright.
