A E
You'll hear my voice
A E7
On the wind cross the sand
D A
If you should return
To that black, barren land
E A
that bears the name of Xanadu
A E
Cursed without hope
A E7
Was the love that I sought
D A
Lost from the start
Was the duel that was fought
E A
to win a heart in Xanadu
A
Now no footsteps leave their traces
D A
Only shadows move in places where we used to go
E
And the buildings open to the sky
D A
All echo with the vultures cry as if to show
A E
Our love was for a day
A D
And doomed to pass away
A D
In Xanadu
A D
In Xanadu
A
In Xanadu
(Spoken)
What was it to you
that a man lay down his life for your love?
Were those clear eyes of yours
ever filled with the pain & tears of grief?
Did you ever give yourself
to any one man in this whole wide world?
Or did you love me
and will you find your way back one day to Xanadu?
A E
You'll hear my voice
A E7
On the wind cross the sand
D A
If you should return
To that black, barren land
E A
that bears the name of Xanadu
A D
In Xanadu
A D
In Xanadu
A
In Xanadu
