[Chorus]
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her

[Verse 1]
   Dm             Am
My actual grip on life was gone
      Dm           Am
I was livin' in my dream 
      Dm                   Am
When along came a man in a tortoise shell
    Dm                Am
The strangest I'd yet seen
   Bm
He said "Come ride upon my back
Bm
Although the pace is slow
     Em
I've no intention of turning back
     Em7                  A7
From where you want to go-ho"
 
[Chorus]
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her

[Chorus]
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her

Palmyra
 
[Verse 2]
    Dm                 Am
And there was Jessica, long dark'ning
   Dm         Am
An underrated queen
   Dm                Am
To laugh is fine, to fool, divine
    Dm                 Am
But keep your thinking clean
    Bm
And here Miranda stood much taller
Bm
Softly flowing grace
    Em
Why was the smirk now getting smaller
Em7           A7
Painted on my face? 
 
[Chorus to Fade]
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her
          D7                     C       G        D7
There was lung-cold steel in the way I'd feel without her
           D7                  C           G     D7
There were mystic eyes shinin' through the lies about her
