[Verse]
A#
Brighten the corners and clear out the room
Eb
Color the flowers in rose and maroon
F
Light up the fires and season this wine
Cm
We're gonna party like it's 1699
[Verse]
A#
Slaughter the rabbits, the doves, and the boars
Eb
And lay all the tables and open the doors
F
The Creme del a Creme will be waiting
Cm
On one guest of honor
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb
Oh up go the curtains
Cm
And down go the virgins
A# A
Oh no, mothers are crying
Em Cm A# F
Ladies of virtue, will stand to accuse you of heartbreak and theft
[Chorus]
A#
Bells are gonna ring
Dm
Birds are gonna sing
Gm Cm
Let the people begin
A# Cm A#
The crowning of your big head
[Verse]
A#
Young drunken girls in a hideous dance
Eb
Sing a heartfelt lament of the death of romance
F
Beautiful boys turn and offer their cheeks
Cm
Preening and prancing, the outcome looks bleak
[Verse]
A#
Good times are rolling
But outside these walls
Eb
Our houses will crumble, this city will fall
F
But a few broken pawns don't mean nothing
Cm
To our guest of honor
[Pre-chorus]
Eb
So let's raise our glasses
Cm A#
To murderess asses like you
A
May you sleep soundly
Eb
Once we had laughter
Cm
You got what you're after
A# F
Oh you wear it well
[Chorus]
A#
Bells are gonna ring
Dm
Birds are gonna sing
Gm Cm
Let the people begin
A# Cm
Hear how the hearts are pounding
A# Eb
We're all witnessing the crowning
F A#m
Of your big bleeding head
[Instrumental]
A#m Ebm A#m Cm F
[Verse]
A#
Bells are gonna ring
Dm
Birds are gonna sing
Gm Cm
Let the people begin
[Outro]
A# Eb
Hear how the hearts are pounding
A# Cm
Your rise, nothing but astounding
A# Eb
We're all witnessing the crowning
Gm F A#
On your useless, ruthless head
