Intro:
C F C F Am
Verse 1:
Am E From candles burning, shadows in the night, Am E People praying for eternal life, Dm But my mind just keeps on wandering, Em F Away from this serene and hallowed place, C G To a woman's face.
Verse 2:
Am E She was lovely, lovely as a dream, Am E She had the beauty, the beauty of a queen, Dm They say that every man who meets her, Em F sooner or later will fall, C G Even me that they call.
Chorus:
C Am The master of invention, the painter of our times, Dm G G7 I can take you round the Heavens and show you how to fly, C Am 'Twas a moment caught forever, there was something in her eyes, Dm G C F C F But I wish I could remember why Mona Lisa smiled.
Verse 3:
Am E She sat before me, this woman so divine, Am E Something eternal was shining in her eyes, Dm Oh, Lisa del Giocondo, Em F you opened up a world of mystery, G G7 When you were looking at me.
Chorus:
C Am The master of invention, the painter of our times, Dm G G7 I can take you round the Heavens and show you how to fly, C Am 'Twas a moment caught forever, there was something in her eyes, Dm G Am But I wish I could remember why Mona Lisa smiled.
Bridge:
Am F Dm G Shame the devil in my heart but I can't stop thinking about her, Dm G C And what she's doing to me, doing to me.
Chorus:
Am Dm G G7
C Am 'Twas a moment of perfection, the canvas never lies, Dm G C F But I wish I could remember why Mona Lisa smiled. C F Why Mona Lisa smiled? C F Why Mona Lisa smiled? C Why Mona Lisa smiled?
