D5          E5         A5   B5
Time takes its crazy toll 
D5                 E5      A5  B5
and how does your mirror grow
D5                         E5              A5   B5
you better watch yourself when you jump into it 
D5                          E5         A5   B5
'cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul 

B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
I wonder how it came to be my friend 
B5            A5         G5            A5 B5 A5 G5
that someone just like you has come again 
B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
you'll never, never know how close you came 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
until you fall in love with the diamond rain 


D5          E5         A5   B5
throw all his trash away 
D5          E5         A5   B5
look out he's here to stay 
D5                   E5                      A5   B5
your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it 
D5                      E5     A5   B5
and you'll never never be the same 

B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
look into his eyes and you can see 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
why all the little kids are dressed in dreams 
B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
I wonder how he's gonna make it back 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
when he sees that you just know it's make-belief 

D5          E5         A5   B5
blood crystalized as sand 
D5          E5              A5   B5
and now I hope you'll understand 
D5                  E5              A5   B5
you reflected into his looking glass soul 
D5                     E5          A5   B5
and now the mirror is your only friend
 
B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
look into his eyes and you will see 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
that men are not alone on the diamond sea 
B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
sail into the heart of the lonely storm 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
and tell her that you'll love her eternally 

D5          E5         A5   B5
time takes its crazy toll 
D5          E5         A5   B5
mirror fallin' off the wall 
D5                   E5                   A5   B5
you better look out for the looking glass girl 
D5                       E5         A5   B5
'cause she's gonna take you for a fall 

B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
look into his eyes and you shall see 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
why everything is quiet and nothing's free 
B5      A5        G5             A5     B5
I wonder how he's gonna make her smile 
B5            A5         G5                A5 B5 A5 G5
when love is running wild on the diamond sea
