[Intro]
Am G D F E

[Verse]
Am
The devil take this Orpheus
G
And his belladonna kiss
D
Beautiful and poisonous
F E
Lovely! Deadly!
Am
Now it thickens on my tongue
G
Now it quickens in my lung
D
Now I'm stricken! Now I'm stung!
E
It's done already!

[Chorus]
Am G F E
Dangerous this jack of hearts
Am G F E
With his kiss the riot starts

[Verse]
Am
All my children came here poor
G
Clamoring for bed and board
D
Now what do they clamor for?
Am E
Freedom! Freedom!
Am
Have I made myself their Lord
G
Just to fall upon the sword
D
Of some pauper's minor chord?
Am E
Who will lead them?

[Chorus]
Am G F E
Who lays all the best laid plans?
Am G F E
Who makes work for idle hands?

[Verse]
Am
Only one thing to be done
G
Let them think that they have won
D
Let them leave together
E
Under one condition
