The Aged Man chords

[INTRO]
[Dm]Do you know the Aged Man
of whom no one knows from whence he came?
His h[A#]ouse lies on t[Dm]he edge
of a [F]solitary c[A]liff.

[Dm]Glow of death and pallid light
illuminate the dark of night
[A#]gleaming out th[Dm]e windows
of the[F] Aged Man's a[A]bode.

[CHORUS]
[A#]If you batter [F]at his door
say f[Gm]arewell to the w[Dm]orld
[A#]For everyone who [F]entered
never w[Gm]alked back on the r[A]oad
from the Aged Man's ab[Dm]ode.

[VERSE]
N[Dm]otorious, of wide-spread fame
yet no one knows him by his name
the [A#]Aged Man in [Dm]his abode
on a s[F]olitary cl[A]iff.

[Dm]Ghastly voices speak of pains
the blood is freezing in your veins.
[A#]Silent cries and [Dm]wailing howls
are f[F]ading in the n[A]ight.

[CHORUS]
[A#]If you batter [F]at his door
say f[Gm]arewell to the w[Dm]orld
For [A#]everyone who [F]entered
never [Gm]walked back on the r[A]oad
from the Aged Man's abo[Dm]de.

[VERSE]
[Dm]Sometimes, when the moon is bright
you see him in the countryside,
ac[A#]companied by l[Dm]oneliness
ab[F]andoning his w[A]orks.

[Dm]If you then stroll in gloomy nights
and peer in cold and hollow eyes,
[A#]you've run across a w[Dm]ooden doll
ca[F]rved by the A[A]ged Man.

[CHORUS]
[A#]If you batter [F]at his door
say f[Gm]arewell to the w[Dm]orld
For [A#]everyone who e[F]ntered
never [Gm]walked back on the r[A]oad
from the Aged Man's ab[Dm]ode.
