{intro} 
E               E              Asus9      Asus9 
  The night is soft and silent, new moon at my door 
Bsus               Bsus                E                     E 
  There's nothing near as quiet as the light I'm looking for 
E                     E         Asus9      Asus9 
  And last time that it appeared he was lying next to me 
Bsus           Bsus             E                 E 
  Last time I felt this near to whispered ecstacy 
  

C#m7             Asus9          Bsus              E    -   E/D# 
  And those who need adventure, they can sail the seven seas 
C#m7             Asus9               E                B 
  And those who search for treasure, they must live on grander dreams 
  

E                       E              Asus9               Asus9 
  We rose and fell just like the tides, he filled my heart and soul and I 
Bsus                  Bsus                     Asus9              Asus9 
  Buried all my dreams for someone else to find in my pirate days 
  

C#m7  Asus9  Bsus  E - E/D#     C#m7  Asus9  Bsus  E 
{instrumental} 
  

E                E       Asus9           Asus9 
  This world is kinder to the kind that won't look back 
Bsus             Bsus       C#m7            Asus9 - Bsus 
  They are the chosen few, among us now, unbowed somehow 
E                 E           Asus9         Asus9 
  And one day he turned to me, and before I took one breath 
Bsus             Bsus         E               E    -   E/D# 
  I knew I would only see his shadow in what light was left 
  

C#m7             Asus9          Bsus              E    -   E/D# 
  And those who need adventure, they can sail the seven seas 
C#m7             Asus9               E                B 
  And those who search for treasure, they must live on grander dreams 
  

E                      E               Asus9                Asus9 
  And if I've seen his face since then, it's only been in dreams my friend 
Bsus       Bsus          Asus9           Asus9 
  Since I came to the end of my pirate days 
E                        E               Asus9                Asus9 
  And if I've called his name since then, it's only been in dreams my friend 
Bsus    Bsus          Asus9             Asus9 
  So I came to the end of my pirate days 
  

E   E   Asus9   Asus9   Bsus   Bsus   Asus9   Asus9
