House Of Salome

Dm                 Bb          C
Shadows run in the heat of the desert
Dm                Bb  C
Hands beat at the door
Dm                 Bb
Someone stands and calls
        C         Dm
For the name of Salome
Bb C

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A                 Bb
As the veils were pushed away
A                 Gm
He gazed upon a face
           A      Bb
He'd never seen
          Dm
Was she a dream?

[Chorus 1]
Dm                        G
He heard the sound from a distant voice
Dm                            Am
You'd better watch out! You'd better watch out!
Dm                        G
He heard the sound from a thousand years
Dm           C
Calling out, calling out

[Verse 2]
 Dm                     Bb        C
"Run with her" said the young handmaiden
 Dm               Bb     C
"She will be your queen
Dm                   Bb
All your life you'll live
       C          Dm        Bb  C
In the dream of Salome  ("Salo__me")
Dm                 Bb        C
Take her mouth and with your hands
     Dm               Bb     C
Just kiss her painted lips
Dm               Bb
Don't you make a move
       C    Dm        Bb C
till Salome calls you"

[Pre-Chorus 2]
A            Bb                A
As the music danced around the desert night
   Gm                 A   Bb
He smelt her perfumed skin
             Dm
As they made love

[Chorus 2]
Dm                        G
He heard the sound from a distant voice
Dm                            Am
You'd better watch out! You'd better watch out!
Dm                        G
He heard the sound from a thousand years
Dm           C
Calling out, calling out
