	        Bm 
Ophelia was a bride of god 
   G 
a novice Carmelite 
    D 
in sister cells the cloister bells 
   A 
tolled on her wedding night  
 
Bm 
Ophelia was a rebel girl 
   G 
a blue stocking suffragette 
      A 
who remedied society 
    D 
between her cigarettes  
 
  Bm 
Ophelia was a sweetheart 
         G 
to the nation over night 
    D 
curvaceous thighs 
vivacious eyes   
A 
love was at first sight...  
 
Bm G D A 
 
Bm 
Ophelia was a demigoddess 
G 
in pre war Babylon 
D 
so statuesque a silhouette 
A 
in black satin evening gowns  
 
 Bm 
Ophelia was the mistress to a 
G 
Vegas gambling man 
D 
Signora Ophelia Maraschina 
A 
Mafia courtesan  
 
Bm 
Ophelia was a circus queen 
G 
the female cannonball 
D 
projected through five flaming hoops 
A 
to wild and shocked applause...  
 
Bm G D A 
 
Bm 
Ophelia was a cyclone, tempest 
G 
a god damned hurricane 
D 
your common sense 
your best defense 
A 
lay wasted and in vain  
 
 
Bm 
Ophelia'd know your every woe 
G 
and pain you'd ever had 
D 
she'd sympathize 
and dry your eyes 
D 
and help you to forget...  
 
Bm G 
and help you to forget...   
Bm G 
and help you to forget...  
 
 
Bm 
Ophelia's mind went wandering 
G 
you'd wonder where she'd gone 
D 
through secret doors 
A 
down corridors 
she'd wander them alone 
Bm 
all alone?
