Album: Tender Prey
-----------------------------------

Eb
Alice wakes
   Ab
It is morning
    Bb
She is yawning
        Eb
As she walks about the room
Cm             F
Her hair falls down her breast
       Ab        Bb      Gm
She is naked and it is June

Eb              F
Standing at the window
                D                Gm
I wonder if she knows that I can see
                D               Gm   Eb   
Watching Alice rise year after year
Gm          D                    Gm   Eb   D
Up in her palace, she's captive there


Alice's body
Is golden brown
Her hair hangs down
As she stoops to conquer me
First she pulls her stocking on
And then the church bell chimes
Alice climbes into her uniform
The zippers on the side
Watching Alice dressing in her room
It's so depressing, it's cruel

Watching Alice dressing in her room
It's so depressing, it's true
