ELTON JOHN - ORIGINAL SYN
music: Elton John
lyrics: Bernie Taupin
G C G D G C G D
G
Oh, it's carnival night,
C D
and they're stringing the lights around you,
Em
hanging paper angels.
C D
Painting little devils on the roof.
G
Oh, the furnace wind,
C D
is a flickering of wings about your face,
Em
in a cloud of incense.
C D
Yea, it smells like heaven in this place.
C
I can't eat, can't sleep.
D Bm
Still I hunger for you when you look at me.
C
That face, those eyes,
D
all the sinful pleasures deep inside.
G D Em Bm
Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in,
C
underneath my skin.
D G D
Oh, you were always my original sin.
G D Em Bm
And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin,
C
this dangerous game.
D Em
Oh, you were always my original sin.
C G D G C G D
G
A dream will fly,
C D
the moment that you open up your eyes.
Em
A dream is just a riddle,
C D
ghost from every corner of your life.

G
Up in the balcony,
C D
all the Romeo's are bleeding for your hand,
Em
blowing theater kisses,
C D
reciting lines they don't understand.
C
I can't eat, can't sleep.
D Bm
Still I hunger for you when you look at me.
C
That face, those eyes,
D
all the sinful pleasures deep inside.
G D Em Bm
Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in,
C
underneath my skin.
D G D
Oh, you were always my original sin.

And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin,
C
this dangerous game.

Oh, you were always my original sin.
