Intro:
( E5 Ab5 C#5 A5 ) x4


E5           Ab5
There was a time

C#5          A5
I was yours, you were mine

E5               Ab5               C#5  A5
We shone in the light of the day

E5             Ab5
No puzzle, no games

C#5               A5
straight-talking, as they say

E5             Ab5              C#5  A5
Nothing could stand in our way


F#5
Two people in a trance are

A5
two fighters in a dance

     F#5
They respect each other's tears

A5                    B5
A fighter's pride is built on fear


chorus:

E5 Ab5    C#5
I, I'm amazed

         A5
I let it slip away

E5 Ab5    C#5
I, I am crazed

             A5
it's running through my veins

F#5              A5
Everything that rises

             ( E5 Ab5 C#5 A5 ) x2
has to fall


E5           Ab5
Somewhere I read

C#5          A5             E5
the truth is better left unsaid

              Ab5           C#5    A5
Avoid all the hurt and the pain

E5                Ab5
I'm a crooked companion

C#5          A5
You'd better watch your step

E5      Ab5             C#5   A5
when I take you out to play


F#5
Drink from this golden cup

A5
The days aren't long enough

F#5
Hoist up the scarlet sails

A5                       B5
I jumped to shore as we moved away

(chorus)

( E5 Ab5 C#5 A5 ) x4
F#5  A5
F#5  A5 B5

final chorus (finish on A):

E5 Ab5    C#5
I, I'm amazed

         A5
I let it slip away

E5 Ab5    C#5
I, I am crazed

             A5
it's running through my veins

F#5              A5
Everything that rises...
