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