Version 1

            (Intro)
Em

[Verse 1]
Em                             D
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
C      Bm              Em
Out at you from their hiding place
      Em                D
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
     C      Bm      Em
His reason tends to fly away
     C                   G
Like lesser birds on the four winds
     C                 B
Like silver scrapes in May
Em              D
Now the sands become a crust
C           Bm       Em
And most of you have gone away

(Verse 2)
     Em               D
Come Susy dear, let's take a walk
C        Bm     Em
Just out there upon the beach
  Em                  D
I know you'll soon be married
        C       Bm             Em
And you want to know where the winds come from
          C             G
Well it's never said at all
       C                B
On the map that Carrie reads
  Em                  D
Behind the clock back there you know
C      Bm         Em
At the four winds bar

[Instrumental]
Em - D - C - Em x3
Em - D- C- Em - D

[Hook]
Em   C  D    Em Em   C  D   Em
Hey,    hey,    hey,    hey
Em                    C
Four winds at the four winds bar
D                       Em
Two doors locked and windows barred
Em                   C
One door let to take you in
    D                  Em
The other one just mirrors it

(Hook 2)
Em   C  D    Em Em   C  D   Em
Hey,    hey,    hey,    hey
   Em                C
In hellish glare and inference
    D              Em
The other one's a duplicate
     Em               C
The queenly flux, eternal light
D                     Em
 Or the light that never warms
        Em            C   D        Em
Yes the light that never,  never warms
        Em            C    D  C  D  C   D   C D  C   D  C  D   C   Em
All the light that never,  never warms, never warms, never warms

(Verse 3)
Em                            D
The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
C      Bm              Em
Out at you from their hiding place
Em                     D
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
C              Bm            Em
Would find themselves at the four winds bar
         C             G
It's the nexus of the crisis
         C          B
And the origin of storms
Em                  D
Just the place to hopelessly
C         Bm       Em 
Encounter time and then came me

[Instrumental 2]
Em - D - C - Em x3
Em - D- C- Em - D

(Solo)
Em   C  D    Em Em   C  D   Em
Hey,    hey,    hey,    hey      x2

(Hook 3)
Em           C    D              Em
Call me Desdenova, eternal light
       Em                 C
These gravely digs of mine
      D                   Em
Will surely prove a sight 
    Em                C   D                   Em
And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent

(Outro)
Em

  Em     D   C  D      Em   D   C   D
Astronomy...         a star...            x4
Em
