Lady eleanor Lindisfarne
[Em]Nasty fey magicians sit in [Bm]lotus on the floor
[Em]Belly-dancing beauties and their [Bm]power-laden swords
[Em]Hide my didn't [Bm]think it could be much more
G A Bm . . . <- fade
When in walked with the Lady Eleanor.
Verse 2:
She tied my eyes with a ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
I gazed with troubled vision on an old four-poster bed
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead,
Chorus:
But it's [G]al - [A]right, Lady Elea[Bm]nor,
[G]Al - [A]right, Lady Elea[Bm]nor,
[G]I'm al[A]right where I [E]am.[Esus4] [E] [Esus4]

Verse 3:
She gazed with a love and beauty, like a mother to a son,
Like live and die, and see and be, and all rolled into one,
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones,
The same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home,
Chorus, (tab).
Verse 4:
Then creeping on towards me with their lips with tongues of fire
A host of golden demons screaming "Lust!" and "Base desire!"
And when it seemed for certain that their screams could get no higher
I heard a voice above the rest, screaming "You're a liar!"
But it's alright, Lady Eleanor,
Alright, Lady Eleanor,
G A (E(bar7) Bm) <- ???
I'm alright here in your arms....
I suspect those last chords are something entirely different, but can't
remember much except they _are_ simple chords.
If anyone can supply the missing words or correct any others I have wrong,
PLEASE Email me. It's an old favourite, and I'd like to get it right!
If memory serves me, Alan Hull wrote it.
p.s. I love the mandolin work, too, but the tab for that would be a bit
beyond me...
