B/Eb            C#6
The scent grows richer,
   B6               A#m7
he knows he must be here,
   E/G#         Ebm/F#
He finds a long passageway lit by

chandelier.


B/Eb                    C#6
Each step he takes, the perfumes change
       B6                  A#m7
From familiar fragrance to flavours strange.
E/G#          Ebm/F#
A magnificent chamber meets his 
Fm7   EM7
eye.

B/Eb           C#6
Inside, a long rose-water pool
   B6               A#m7
is shrouded by fine mist.
   E/G#               Ebm/F#
Stepping in the moist silence, with a 
Fm7(b5)
warm breeze he's gently kissed.


B/Eb           C#6
Thinking he is quite alone, 
   B6                        A#m7
He enters the room , as if it were his own
    E/G#            Ebm/F#
But ripples on the sweet pink water 
Fm7(b5)
Reveal some company unthought of -


Cm    Ab/C    Cm7      Ab/C         Bb6
Rael stands astonished doubting his sight,
                        Eb     Eb/D 
Struck by beauty, gripped in fright;
Cm        Ab/C    Cm7      Ab/C   Bb6
Three ver-milion snakes of female face
                             Eb    F
The smallest motion, filled with grace.


Gm    Dm       FM7      CM7     D
Muted melodies fill the echoing hall,
Gm        Dm    FM7     CM7     FM7       D
But there is no sign of warning in the siren's call:
 Gm   Dm       Am/E       Em     Bm     F#m  C#m  G#m 
'Rael welcome, we are the Lamia  of the pool.
A            E       A       E         F#m       C#m
We have been waiting for our waters to bring you cool.'

Piano Solo: (              )

B/Eb           C#6
Putting fear beside him , 
   B6               A#m7
he trusts in beauty blind 
    E/G#          Ebm/F#
He slips into the nectar, leaving his 
  
shredded clothes behind.


B/Eb                      C#6
'With their tongues, they test, taste and judge 
B6          A#m7
all that is mine.
     E/G#      Ebm/F#
They move in a series of caresses
     Fm7                   EM7
That glide up and down my spine.


(   E    E  B/Eb   B/Eb  EM7 )

B/Eb               C#6
As they nibble the fruit of my flesh, 
B6        A#m7
I feel no pain,
E/G#   Ebm/F#
Only a magic that a 
Fm7(b5)
name would stain.


B/Eb                       C#6
With the first drop of my blood in their veins
      B6                  A#m7
Their faces are convulsed in mortal pains.
    E/G#               Ebm/F#
The fairest cries, 'We all have loved you, 
Fm7(b5)
Rael'.'


Cm   Ab/C   Cm7      Ab/C  Bb6
Each empty snakelike body floats,
                   Eb     Eb/D 
Silent sorrow in empty boats.
Cm Ab/C  Cm7      Ab/C      Bb6
A sickly sourness fills the room ,
                           Eb    F
The bitter harvest of a dying bloom.


Gm          Dm       FM7    CM7      D
Looking for motion I know I will not find,
Gm           Dm        FM7     CM7      FM7          D
I stroke the curls now turning pale, in which I'd lain entwined.
 Gm Dm           Am/E        Em           Bm      F#m  C#m  G#m 
'Oh Lamia, your flesh that remains I will take as my food.'
A            E     A           E          F#m          C#m
It is the scent of garlic that lingers on my chocolate fingers.

Piano Solo: (              )

B/Eb      C#6
Looking behind me,
    B6              A#m7
the water turns icy blue, 
    E/G#                  Ebm/F#          Fm7(b5)
The lights are dimmed and once again the stage is set for you.
