The Mekons Prince of Darkness Lyrics

And now he is the prince of darkness
He holds old friends in such high esteem
He sees a red town and wants it painted black
For the Catholic girls at Halloween
Well he said to me, I've waited seven years
And I am a very patient man
After all those things that you've gone and done
I still need someone to tell
His pleasures were a mystery to us all
You'd never see him out after dawn
In a German seaport town, he takes his coffee in the red light
And now he is the prince of darkness
FILL RIFF - last 6 notes below optional before 1ST, 2ND, 3RD lines
before C chord
A?3-33--333----------------0-00-0000----0020/
ALTERNATIVE: C scale fill staring 2 beats earlier than above riff
(this isn't exactly what jon plays live, a couple of notes are
different, but I can't figure them)
A?3-33--333--------------0-00-003-------/
