Through the steaming woodlands

His darkened blood through bulging veins

Through the steaming woodlands

Aah, aah

Virtue knows he follows softly
Fb G#m
Through the steaming woodlands

Down the leafy pathway

Aah, ah, aah, ah
Gb G#m
La-la-la-la-la-la
Gb G#m Gb G#m
The dim light she comes peering through the forest pines
Gb G#m Gb G#m
And she knows by the sound of the baying, by the baying of the hounds
Gb G#m
Diana Diana kick your feet up
Gb G#m
Lust bears his teeth and whines
Gb G#m
For he's picked up the scent of virtue
Gb G#m/D# Gb/C# Cb Gb
And he knows the panic signs..............................
