Em                             G
I dreamt that I was lying on the bottom of
    C                     B  A G F
The dark and never-ending sea
     Em               G
On a bed that my dead lover was preparing
C                         B A G F
With his own skeleton for me

[Bridge]
Em
Bring us a goat and we'll show you the way
G
Straight through the realm of the fallen and slain

[Verse 2]
  Em                                  G
I sensed the wretched spectres of the drowned
   C                             B
Staring across from some distant shore
    Em                     G
And in my sadness I drew closer
        C                    B   A G F
To condole and somewhat to implore

[Verse 3]
              Em                  G
I am like the doubtful kiss of a corpse
              C                     B A G F
Or maybe the kiss of an ancient stone
               Em                     G
Yes, it's like kissing some marble statue
                 C                        B A G F
That has neither warmth nor life of its own

[Bridge 2]
Em
Down, further down, where the gloom becomes sound
G
On the cell where your love might be found

[Pre-verse]
                   C
Cover the mirrors, fragile has died
D                          Em
  Leaving but a starless ruin behind
C              D               Em
  Shatter the mirrors, so that he can never be called
     C                  D                    Em
Back from the blessed silence of his sacred vault

[Verse 4]
                   G
No, no, no, put an end to the show
          C                          B  A  G  F
I'm going back to the land where the bone-flowers grow
        Em                       G
To "the wild, weird clime that lieth, sublime
C                B  A  G  F
Out of Space and out of Time"

[Verse 5]
Em                  G
See the shape, but can't see through
C                          B  A  G  F
No-one can ever hate me as well as I do
     Em                                 G
Know when to throw a laugh, know how to force a smile
    C                       B  A  G  F
Whatever the intention, I'm such a "friendly" lie

[Bridge 3]
Em
Bring us only this goat and we'll lead you to him
G
It shall open the gates, so we can sneak you in

[Verse 6]
Em                        G
"Bring us a goat and we'll show you the way

Straight through the realm of the fallen and slain
Em                            G
Down, further down, where the gloom becomes sound
C                          B

It will open the gates, so we can sneak you in
         Em                         G
Oh, it's cold and so dark here, and you must keep in mind
       C                       B
No-one can get you out, if you overstep time

[Verse 7]
Em                        G
"Bring us a goat and we'll show you the way
C                                 B

Down, further down, where the gloom becomes sound
C                          B

It will open the gates, so we can sneak you in

No-one can get you out, if you overstep time
