Death And Hell

Verse 1: 
A F#m 
She stepped down from her carriage at 10 Vermillon Street 
D E 
I took off my roustabout and slung it to her feet 
A F#m 
We went into her parlor and she cooled me with her fan 
D E A 
But said i‘ll go no further with a fantasy makin‘ man 
 
 
Verse 2: 
F# B 
I said i‘d walk on Ponchatrain for what you have today 
E A 
Just to drink from your deep well and i‘ll be on my way 
F# B 
She laughed and heaven filled the room said this i give to you 
E A 
This body‘s wisdom is the flesh,but here‘s a thing or two 
 
 
Chorus: 
D E D A 
Death and hell are never full 
D E A 
And neither are the eyes of men 
D E D A 
Cats can fly from nine stories high 
E D 
And pigs can see the wind 
 
 
Verse 3: 
A F#m 
She let me make my pallet in the moonlight on the floor 
D E 
Just outside of paradise but right in hell‘s back door 
A F#m 
The image of her nibbled at the eye of my soul 
D E A 
My dreams were a hurricane and quite out of control 
 
 
Verse 4: 
F# B 
Then her voice came through the storm it‘s more than flesh i deal 
E A 
You will have to pay for any wisdom that you steal 
F# B 
I awoke to tinted windows and lavender and red 
E A 
The first station of the cross is just above my head 
F# B 
I awoke to gargoyles and a hard bench for my bed 
E A 
Jesus Christ and Pontias Pilate were just above my head 
 
 
Chorus.
