Key: D
Introduction:
Dm Gm
As night turns into day,
A Dm
You take me far away.
Bb F
You offered me your hand.
A Gm A
The winding stars and strands...
Dm Gm
I opened up my eyes,
A Dm
And to my great surprise
Bb F
The world was full of light,
A Gm A
All shining lily white.
Dm Gm
What is a life with you?
A Dm
What's life without you too?
Bb F
It seems we are astray,
A Gm A
Just ghosts among the gray.
Dm Gm
And you, my shadow man,
A Dm
With pockets full of sand...
Bb F
It's a lonesome life you lead,
A Gm A
Wrapped all in time and tweed...
Dm Gm
And quiet came our way,
A Dm
The cracks came out to play.
Bb F
And come the ticking clocks,
A Gm Dm
The mad man with the box.
