Em                              C
Velvet and satin and puppets on strings
Em                               C
Everyone's dancing with Lady Marlene
D                     (C)           Am
Fear is the colour of all that they wear
C                                       D        Em    C   D
Mother-of-pearl pallors cold like her heart of stone

Em                                 C
Silently soldiers dance 'til they fall
Em                             C
Icicle chandelier shining so cold
          D               (C)       Am
They are draped in red in her masquerade
C                                    D     
Lady Marlene takes your hand and commands the

Am                          C
Wind to blow ghosts to the sky above
           G                           Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?
        Am                             C
Oh the north wind blows ghosts to the sky above
            G                          Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?

Em C D  x2

Em                         
Murk is her grip on the world
Em                                       D#m
Calamity rules when her flag is unfurled
            D                  (C)           Am
Turn your backs on Marlene and let there be love
     C                            D 
but pallid and pale you all fall asleep as

     Am                             C
The north wind blows ghosts to the sky above
           G                           Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?
        Am                             C
Oh the north wind blows ghosts to the sky above
            G                          Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?

     Am                             C
The north wind blows ghosts to the sky above
           G                           Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?
        Am                             C
Oh the north wind blows ghosts to the sky above
            G                          Bm
Deep in despair they cry where is the love?
