Dancing With Mr D

        A            C             
       Down in the graveyard where 
A            C
we have our tryst,
            A          C          
       The air smells sweet, the 
A          C
air smells sick.
       A         C           A   
       He never smiles, his mouth
         C
 merely twists,
             A           C        
       The breath in my lungs 
    A           C
feels clinging and thick.
           A            C      
       But I know his name, he's 
         A      C
called Mister D.
            A            C        
       And one of these days he's 
       A       C
gonna set you free.
         A     C                 
       Human skulls is hangin' 
A               C
right 'round his neck,
            A           C     
       The palms of my hands is 
    A        C
clammy and wet.

       Will it be poison, put in my 
glass,
       Will it be slow or will it be
 fast?
       The bite of a snake, the 
sting of a spider,
       A drink of Belladonna on a 
Toussaint night.
       Hiding in a corner in New 
York City,
       Lookin' down a forty four in 
West Virginia.

      One night I was dancin' with a
 lady in black,
      Wearin' black silk gloves and 
a black silk hat.
      She looked at me longin' with 
black velvet eyes,
      She gazed at me strange all 
cunning and wise.
      Then I saw the flesh just fall
 off her bones,
      The eyes in her skull was 
burning like coals.
      Lord, have mercy, fire and 
brimstone.
      I was dancin' with Misses D.

dancin' so free.
      Dancin', dancin', dancin' so 
free.
      Dancin', dancin'.
