  Verse 1:

             A                                   F#m 

  	She stepped down from her carriage at 10 Vermillon Street

              D                          E

  	I took off my roustabout and slung it to her feet

             A                              F#m

  	We went into her parlor and she cooled me with her fan

               D                               E             A

  	But said i'll go no further with a fantasy makin' man

  

  

  Verse 2:

            F#                                B                   

  	I said i'd walk on Ponchatrain for what you have today

              E                                               A  

  	Just to drink from your deep well and i'll be on my way

                F#                                B

  	She laughed and heaven filled the room said this i give to you

               E                                                A

  	This body's wisdom is the flesh,but here's a thing or two

  

  

  Chorus:

            D        E        D      A   

  	Death and hell are never full

                D              E       A

  	And neither are the eyes of men

            D       E        D            A    

  	Cats can fly from nine stories high

                        E        D

  	And pigs can see the wind

  

  

  Verse 3:

            A                            F#m

  	She let me make my pallet in the moonlight on the floor

                D                        E

  	Just outside of paradise but right in hell's back door

            A                              F#m                      

  	The image of her nibbled at the eye of my soul

               D                            E               A

  	My dreams were a hurricane and quite out of control

  

  	

  Verse 4:

               F#                                 B

  	Then her voice came through the storm it's more than flesh i deal

               E                                         A

  	You will have to pay for any wisdom that you steal

              F#                          B            

  	I awoke to tinted windows and lavender and red

                E                                          A

  	The first station of the cross is just above my head

             F#                       B 

  	I awoke to gargoyles and a hard bench for my bed

             E                                                A      

  	Jesus Christ and Pontias Pilate were just above my head

  

  

  Chorus.
