[Verse 1]
Am The guests are stood in silence F Am They stare and drink their wine
On the wall the canvas hangs
C E7 Frozen there in time C G They marvel at the beauty Am F The horror and despair Am At the wake of the Medusa C Am No one shed a tear C G Sit my friends and listen Am F Put your glasses down C G Sit my friends and listen Am To the voices of the drowned

[Verse 2]
Am In the moonlight's ghostly glow F Am I waken in a dream
Once more upon that raft I stand
C E7 Upon a raging sea C G In my ears the moans and screams Am F Of the dying ring Am Somewhere in the darkness C Am The siren softly sings C G Out there in the waves she stands Am F And smiling there she calls C G As the lightning cracks the sky Am The wind begins to howl

[Verse 3]
Am The architects of our doom F Am Around their tables sit
And in their thrones of power
C E7 Condemn those they've cast adrift C G Echoes down the city street Am F Their harpies laughter rings Am Waiting for the curtain call C Am Oblivious in the wings C G The casket is empty Am F Abandon ye all hope C G They ran off with the money Am And left us with the rope
