[Verse 1]
E5
Several years ago
C/E
In a foreign town
E
Far away from home
  Edim             Am/E
I met the Count of Tuscany
  E5
A young eccentric man
Em7
Bred from royal blood
A/E
Took me for a ride
 C/E            F/E
Across the open countryside

[Bridge]
Em Bm Em             C
      Get into my car
Em
Let's go for a drive
Along the way
             Bb
I'll be your guide
     Em     Am
Just step inside
Em Bm Em              D
      Maybe you recall
  Em              A/C#
A cannibal curator
  Em                 C     Em        Bb
A character inspired by my brother's life

[Pre-Verse]
Bm Bb F# G A F# G Em Bm C

[Verse 2]
E5
Winding through the hills
    C/E
The city far behind
E
On and on we drove
     Edim               Am/E
Down narrow streets and dusty roads
   E5
At last we came upon
  Em7
A picturesque estate
   A/E
On sprawling emerald fields
   C/E              F/E
An ancient world of times gone by

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
  Let me introduce
My brother
A bearded gentleman
Historian
Sucking on his pipe
Distinguished accent
Making me uptight
No accident

[Chorus]
Cm              Eb
I want to stay alive
            Ab
Everything about this place
     Cmaj7/F
Just doesn't feel right
Cm
I 
                Eb
I don't want to die
             Ab                Am(b5) Gb Fm
Suddenly I'm frightened for my life  
Eb Bb Cm                Eb
      I want to say goodbye
                  Ab
This could be the last time
        Cmaj7/F
You see me     alive
Cm
I
             Eb
I may not survive
                 Ab          Am(b5)
Knew it from the moment we arrived

[Verse 3]
E5
Would you like to see
    C/E
Our secret holy place?
  E
I come here late at night
   Edim           Am/E
To pray to him by candle light
     E5
Then peering through the glass
  Em7
I saw with disbelief
      A/E
Still dressed in royal clothes
    C/E              F/E
The saint behind the altar
E5
History recalls
C/E
During times of war
E
Legend has been traced
Edim              Am/E
Back inside these castle walls
      E5
Where soldiers came to hide
   Em7
In barrels filled with wine
A/E
Never to escape
      C/E              F/E
These tombs of oak are where they died

[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
  Down the cellar stairs
I disappear
Like the English heir
The end is near
Come and have a taste
A rare vintage
All the finest wines
Improve with age

[Chorus]
Cm              Eb
I want to stay alive

                Eb

Suddenly I'm frightened for my life

[Verse 4]
                  Badd11
Is this the way I die?  
              F#
Sitting here alone
            E
No one by my side
             G#m
I don't understand
                  Badd11
I don't feel that I     deserve this
           F#
What did I do wrong?
             E
I just don't understand
I just don't understand

[Pre-Verse]
G#m Badd11 F# E                G#m
               Give me one more   chance

[Verse 5]
                    Badd11
And let me please explain
              F#
It's all been circumstance
              E
I'll tell you once again
                  G#m
You took me for a ride
            Badd11
Promising a vast  adventure
                 F#
Next thing that I  know
                  E
I'm frightened for my life
                  G#m
Now wait a minute man

[Verse 6]
               Badd11
That's not how it    is
               F#
You must be confused
                E
That isn't who I am
                 G#m
Please don't be afraid
              F#/A#   Badd11
I would never try  to hurt  you
               E
This is how we live
Strange although it seems
F#        E
Please try to forgive
    F#             G#m
The chapel and the saint

[Verse 7]
                     Badd11
The soldiers and the wine  
                   F#
The fables and the tales
           E
All handed down through time
                         G#m
Of course you're free to go 
                F#/A#    Badd11
Go and tell the world my story
              E
Tell about my brother
Tell them about me
    F#      E        F#
The Count of Tuscany,
