Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women
G Bm Em Em
There's a shoulder where death comes to cry

There's a lobby with nine hundred windows

Oh, I want you, I want you, I want you
G G Em Em
On a chair with a dead magazine
C C D D
In the cave at the tip of the lily
C C G B7
In some hallways where love's ne-ver been
Em Em Em Em
On a bed where the moon has been sweating
Am E7 Am Am
In a cry filled with footsteps and sand

There's a concert hall in Vienna
G Bm Em Em
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews
C C D D
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking

They've been sentenced to death by the blues

With a garland of freshly cut tears?

There's an attic where children are playing
G G Em Em
Where I've got to lie down with you soon
C C D D
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns

In the mist of some sweet af-ter-noon

And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow

All your sheep and your lilies of snow

[Quinta Parte]
G G Em Em
And I'll dance with you in Vienna
G Bm Em Em
I'll be wearing a river's disguise
C C D D
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
C C G G
My mouth on the dew of your thighs
G G Em Em
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook
G Bm Em Em
With the photographs there and the moss
C C D D
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty
C C G B7
My cheap violin and my cross
Em Em Em Em
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
Am E7 Am Am
To the pools that you lift on your wrist
*G C C G G
Oh, my love, oh, my love

It's yours now, it's all that there is
