The Lamia (Genesis)

		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  
Fm7/5-  
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 E7+  
eye.  
 
( G#m/Eb E G#m7/F# E B/Eb B4/E B/Eb E7+ )  
 
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  
Fm7/5-  
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  
Fm7/5-  
Reveal some company unthought of -  
 
Cm Ab/C Cm7 Ab/C Bb6  
Rael stands astonished doubting his sight,  
Ab7+ Eb Eb/D  
Struck by beauty, gripped in fright;  
Cm Ab/C Cm7 Ab/C Bb6  
Three ver-milion snakes of female face  
Ab7+ Eb F  
The smallest motion, filled with grace.  
 
Gm Dm F7+ C7+ D  
Muted melodies fill the echoing hall,  
Gm Dm F7+ C7+ F7+ C7+/9 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."  
 
( F#m C#/F Eb4/Bb Bb Ebm/Bb Bb7 Bb )  
 
Piano Solo: ( Eb7 C#7+/F Eb7 C#7+/F Eb7 Fm/Bb C#m/F# )  
 
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  
Fm7/5-  
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 E7+  
That glide up and down my spine.  
 
( G#m/Eb E G#m7/F# E B/Eb B4/E B/Eb E7+ )  
 
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  
Fm7/5-  
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,  
Fm7/5-  
Rael'."  
 
Cm Ab/C Cm7 Ab/C Bb6  
Each empty snakelike body floats,  
Ab7+ Eb Eb/D  
Silent sorrow in empty boats.  
Cm Ab/C Cm7 Ab/C Bb6  
A sickly sourness fills the room,  
Ab7+ Eb F  
The bitter harvest of a dying bloom.  
 
Gm Dm F7+ C7+ D  
Looking for motion I know I will not find,  
Gm Dm F7+ C7+ F7+ C7+/9 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.  
 
( F#m C#/F Eb4/Bb Bb Ebm/Bb Bb7 Bb )  
 
Piano Solo: ( Eb7 C#7+/F Eb7 C#7+/F Eb7 Fm/Bb C#m/F# )  
 
B/Eb C#6  
Looking behind me,  
B6 A#m7  
the water turns icy blue,  
E/G# Ebm/F# Fm7/5-  
The lights are dimmed and once again the stage is set for you.  
 
( B/Eb C#6 B6 A#m7 E/G# Ebm/F# Fm7/5- ) fade
