Phil Ochs - The Doll House lyrics

pre>d g d Lost in the valley of vaults/dolls/oz(?) G d g d Fell from the path, it was nobody's fault Bm a That i was alone. D g d Time dripped from the trees G - d Left through the nail (i leapt through a lamp/land/lap(?) (?)) G d g a I fell to my knees before the throne Bm g bm And the crown was covered j**els, sparkling schools A The beautiful faun/falls/(?) G a The magnificent battle was fought Bm g a And cinderella's soldier fish was caught Bm a And the lady from the lake Bm a Who helped me to escape G em a Led me to myself at last Em a bm /a/d Though i danced with the dolls in the doll house G d g d The flower fled from my feet, G d g d Tom sawyer voice through the hole of the key, Bm a Landed so gently. D g d Castles cover the cave, G d g d I had no choice, the visions were brave Bm a And the phantoms were friendly, Bm g And pirate jenny was dancing for pennies, Bm a The knucklebones tossed in a spin, G a There were silver songs on her skin. Bm g a And she wasn't caring when the ship came in. And the lady from the lake Helped me to escape Led me to myself at last, Though i danced with the dolls in the doll house D g d My costume dropped to the floor, G d g d Naked at last, i couldn't fight any-more, Bm a And the service was rendered. D g d g d A poem fell from the wine, buried the past. G d bm a The future was mine and the present sur-rendered. Bm g And the ballet master is beckoning faster, Bm a g a The ballerina was posed, in the fragile beauty we froze. Bm g a Let go, let go, let go, let go, let go. And the lady from the lake Who helped me to escape Left me with myself at last Though i danced with the doll in the doll house /pre>
