INTRO:     A   D   A  -- 3x's 
 
 
VERSE: 
         A    D           A 
        The queen of the Nile 
         A   D           A 
        She laid on her throne 
       E 
        And she was drifting downstream 
                                           A D A 
        On a barge that was burnished with g-o-ld 
         A     D          A 
        Royal purple the sails 
         A   D         A 
        So sweetly perfumed 
       E 
        And poor Mark Antony's 
        Senses were drowned 
                           A D A 
        And his future was doomed 
 
 
Chorus: 
      E        E7          A  D A 
       He was blinded by love 
 
 
VERSE: 
       The Philistines paid 
       For Samson's blind rage 
       The secrets that two lovers share 
       Should never have been betrayed 
 
 
Chorus: 
       He was blinded by love 
       He was blinded by love 
 
 
BREAK: 
 
    C#m                              A 
       Now it's no use in crying or weeping 
    C#m            C#                         D 
       You better lock up your soul for safe keeping 
         E         A  D  A 
       Promise me 
 
 
VERSE: 
       The poor Prince of Wales 
       He gave up his crown 
       All for the trivial pursuit of 
       A parvenu second-hand lady 
       So lovers beware 
       If you lose your heart 
       Careful now, don't lose your mind 
       Don't mortgage your soul to a stranger
