E5                  A5
You talk as if in riddles
A5   A+    A5            E5
You talk as if in rhymes
E5                  A5
Down in the lion's lair
A5   A+      A5                  E5
I stroke yourself to feel so fine
E5                         A5
And what are you afraid of
A5                F#5
Afraid to get so touched
F#5                     A5                       E5
Like when you begin to feel, is that way way too much

E5                            A5
You've lost your sense of purpose
A5     A+    A5          E5
And you can't stand alone
E5                       A5
There's no more circus here
A5      A+     A5           E5
And nothing's carved in stone
E5                        A5
I see you down in the desert
A5                   F#5 
And on the lonely beach
F#5                    A5
I hold you in these places
A5                            E5
Where no one else can reach you
(arpeggio E from high "e" string down)
For comfort there...

Chorus:
E5          D5      A5   A+  A5
In your wildest dreams,
E5        D5            A5
We can talk until we say something
E5        D5       A5  A+  A5
It don't mean a thing
F#5                      A5                E5
I will be there when you come back down, oh yeah
E5     A5                 E5     A5
         Oh yeah, yeah.

Verse 2:  (same chords as verse 1)
I hold you in the desert 
And on the lonely beach
I hold you in these places
Where no one else can reach you
The words cannot reveal this
And nothing's carved in stone
So baby don't hide around it,
If it's something you can own

I want you when you're bad,
And when you think you're good
I want you when you won't
And when you think you should
I want you when you're angry
And when you come back down
I hold you above the water, 
When you think that you might drown
G? A-wonder...

[Chorus 2]

Bridge:
F#5            D5
I look back in
                A5             E5
And you'll be smiling once again
F#5           D5
I turn around
              A5                E5
Just as the sun comes shining in on you
F#5           A5              E5
We have not lost, but just begun

[Chorus 3 & 4]
Last line:
For now and ever, we've just begun...
