Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
( ) x4
There was a time
I was yours, you were mine
We shone in the light of the day
No puzzle, no games
straight-talking, as they say
Nothing could stand in our way
Two people in a trance are
two fighters in a dance
They respect each other's tears
A fighter's pride is built on fear
Chorus
I, I'm amazed
I let it slip away
I, I am crazed
it's running through my veins
Everything that rises
( ) x2
has to fall
Somewhere I read
the truth is better left unsaid
Avoid all the hurt and the pain
I'm a crooked companion
You'd better watch your step
when I take you out to play
Drink from this golden cup
The days aren't long enough
Hoist up the scarlet sails
I jumped to shore as we moved away
(chorus)
( ) x4
final chorus (finish on A):
I, I'm amazed
I let it slip away
I, I am crazed
it's running through my veins
Everything that rises...
