[Verse]
D
Night a nine of diamonds
A woman lay and cries
                  G
At the sister of Mercy

              D
On a Sabbath day

 D
Night a nine of diamonds
As revelers commence
    C             G
To shiver as she bore

                 D
In a babe, a radiance

D
Brave in constant motion
Wherein perfection brews
  C              G
Darkness as his brother

                D
Mischief as his moon

D
Summoning beneath
With his gypsy moves
C                G
Yearning as the foal

              D
Shy and beautiful

D
Every card he drew
Had a different face
C             G
Lingering and lost

            D
Unholy holy ghosts

D
I tend to play them all

    Am7            D
He spoke with confidence

  Am7            D
Another kind of strange

    Am7           D
To shift in loneliness

D
He sought not for himself
The empire he would find
C               G
Save the golden womb

                 D
He enter in his mind

D
We will die a littler
The rogues whistling
C                G
Nine blue-eyed sailors

                   D
Tip their caps to him

 D
As he passes through them
More vagabond than king
 C                     G
With diamonds on his sleeves

C            D
Like a harlequin
