  C             
I followed far behind you

       Em
To the edge of Tinseltown

           F              C
Where the [Carnival ?] is open

        F                Dm
And the curtains falling down

       C              
Took a seat in the front row

         Em
You were there, up on the stage

         F                C
You were paying for their silver

         F                 Dm  Dm7 Dm Dm7
With your beauty and your rage

   F                C
I  found you in the dressing room

   F                  C
At peace with your disgrace

       Am   G    C     F
In the body of a messenger

                Am G C F  Am G 
With Aphrodite's face

  C             
I reached out, but you ran away

       Em
When I caught your glimpse of hell

      F               C
But I lost you in the alleyway

    F                  Dm
Where no one knows you well

       C             
If the times were not so killing

           Em
They'd lay flowers at your feet

       F                 C
If the flesh were not so willing

        F             Dm  
And the spirit not so weak

       F                C
They'd come to get your blessing

         F                   C
When the gods hang up their [trace ?]

       Am   G    C     F
In the body of a messenger

                Am G C F  Am G C F  Am G C   
With Aphrodite's face
BRIDGE:
F          Em
Imitation, worries skin deep

Dm         Am 
Imitation, go back to sleep

F               Am
Love is so much deeper than this

Dm             Am G C  F  Am G C F  Am G 
Hollow horn of emptiness

         C             
It's too soon to end your story

         Em
It's too late to take it back

   F                     C
And all that's been made holy

   F              Dm  
Can never be made hack

       C             
I'll unlace my ties that bind you

       Em
And my fingers from your hand

          F               C
Then I'll lose you 'til I find you

        F              Dm  
From the woman in the man

         F                  C
But your curse will be your blessing

         F               C
When the angel takes his place

       Am   G    C     F
In the body of a messenger

                Am G C F  Am G C
With Aphrodite's face
OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)
           Am G C F  Am G C
Aphrodite's face

            Am G C F  Am G C F  Am G C F  Am G C F  
Aphrodite's face
