Intro

Dsus4 A D/A A Bm G D

Bm E A G A D

 In my Dsus4early A D/Ayears I Ahid my Atears

 And Bmpassed my Gdays aloDne

BmAdrift on an oEcean of lAoneliness

 My dGreams like Anets were Dthrown

 To Dsus4catch A the D/Alove that AI'd heard Aof

 In Bmbooks and Gfilms and Dsongs

 Now there's a Bmworld of illEusion and fanAtasy

 In the Gplace where the Areal world Dbelongs

 Still I Glook for the Abeauty in Dsongs

 To fill my F♯mhead and lead me Aon

 Though my Gdreams have Acome up torn and Dempty

 As many Atimes as love has come and Ggone

 To those Dsus4gentleA D/Aones my Amemory Aruns

 To the Bmlaughter we Gshared at the Dmeals

BmI filled their Ekitchens and Aliving rooms

 With myG schemes and myA broken whDeels

 It was Dsus4never A D/Aclear how Afar or Anear

 The Bmgates to my cGitadel lay D

 They were Bmcutting from Estone some Adreams of their own

 But they Glistened to mineA anyway D

 I'm not Gsure what I'm Atrying to say D

 It could F♯mbe I've lost my Away

 Though I Gkeep a Awatch over the Ddistance

 Heaven's no Acloser than it was yesterGday

 And the Dangels are Aolder F♯

 They Bmknow not to wait Bm/Aup for the sun G

 They look over my Dshoulder A/C♯

 At the Bmmaps and the Bm/Adrawings of the E/G♯journey I've begAun

 Now the Gdistance lAeads me farther Don

 Though the F♯mreasons I once had are Agone

 I keep Gthinking I'll Afind what I'm Dlooking for

 In the Asand beneath the Gdawn

 But the Dangels are Aolder F♯

 They Bmcan see that the Bm/Asun's setting fGast

 They look over my Dshoulder A/C♯

 At the Bmvision of parBm/Aadise contE/G♯ained in the light of the Apast

 And theyD lay down bAehind me F♯

 To sleep beside the Bmroad till the Bm/Amorning has comGe

 Where they know they will Dfind me A/C♯

 With my Bmmaps and my Bm/Afaith in the distancGe

 Moving Afarther Don G A
