Prince Of Darkness Tab

   
      C    G                Am
And now he is the prince of darkness
     C         G                     Am
He holds old friends in such high esteem
    C      G            Am               F
He sees a red town and wants it painted black
         C            F          C   
For the Catholic girls  at Halloween


Well he said to me, I've waited seven years
And I am a very patient man
After all those things that you've gone and done
I still need someone to tell

His pleasures were a mystery to us all
You'd never see him out after dawn
In a German seaport town, he takes his coffee in the red light
And now he is the prince of darkness
