[F#m] In [Em] the moat of the castle [F] was where the Duke of [C] something's wife [A] drowned
And the [Em] eyes of her portrait seemed [Am] to follow him [E]
around
[Am] The bank [C] foreclosed on his dungeon [F] when [C] the Duke was late in paying
[Am] And now he looks [C] at her picture [Am] and he seems to [E] hear it [F] sing
[G] What is like [F] to be [G] alive?
And she's [C] got no answer [Dm] to that, [C] she's got no answer that she [G] can hear
Though she may [C] wonder, she [G] doesn't [C] get an [F] answer
[G] [A] Framed in the [E] [G] diorama [F] is the arms of the [C] [G] taxidermist
[A] [Em] Realistically frozen [F] as it's [G] pouncing with [G#] the [F] grimace
Light gleams [C] off of the marbles [Am] in the sockets where his [E] eyes [Dm] were
And every time they [G] twinkle [Am] it's like a question [Em] from the [F] tiger
What [G] is like [F] to be [G] alive?
And he [C] gets no [Dm] answer to that, she [C] gets no answer
He won't [G] know, he'll [C] always wonder, [F] she [G] doesn't [C] get an answer
[F] [Em] [F] Close the window [C] when you hear the [G] howling wind
[Em] It's [F] just a query [Dm] and you mustn't [G] let it in
[Am] On the [G] southeast expressway [F] where they found [C] the empty [G] [A] stroller
Being [Em] blown by the traffic [F] through the trash [E] along the [F] shooter
Was it the [C] ghost of somebody who decided not to begin?
And under the sound of the car horn can you hear a [E] small voice [F] asking
What [G] is like [F] to be [G] alive?
[C] And he [Dm] searches out, [C] there is no [G] [C] [F]
[G] [C] [F] [G] [C] answer [Dm] to that, [C] there is no answer
If you can't [G] get [C] away then you're one [Dm] step too [G] [C] late
