D#m        A#
She comes dressed like Sunday
C#         G#
String of pearls around her neck
D#m      A#
Room of mirrors, days of lace
C#   G#
Porcelain and picturesque

Chorus:
D#m  A#m       C#             G#
Her eyes masquerade, fade to black

Roses on the winding path
Velvet ribbon down her back
Shadows lie across her face
Drowning in a state of grace

Chorus:
Her eyes masquerade, fade to black
They'll come at night to take her back

D#m
Want to need you
A#m
Need to please you
C#             G#
Do you see her in the mirror?
D#m            A#m
In the mirror, do you see her?
C#
Want to need you
G#
Need to please you

Chorus:
Her eyes masquerade, fade to black
They'll come at night to take her back

 F#         A#      B                 A#m
Light each candle, here tonight then gone forever
Light each candle, here tonight then gone forever
Here tonight then gone forever

D#m A#m C#                  G#
        Here tonight, then gone forever
        Here tonight, then gone forever
        Here tonight, then gone forever
