...give it up or let it ride, she must decide.


Bridge 2:

Em          Bm             Em                  Bm
Actuals and counterclaims; drugged, reborn, resigned.
       Em              Bm                Em                    Bm
The castle stands, the girl remains, and if she'll spin, it's packed with eyes
Em               Bm        Em                  Bm
Out there in the corridor, caught there in the mirror maze,
F#m               G            G#         A
From her last and loving glance... a waltz...a dance...
A#m          B          C         C#m    D D D D
...whose time...not here...but gone… was time!

   Em             Bm                   Em                  Bm
So put me to the question, but there's no return from this castle of mine
        Em          D       Em           D           Em   D    Em   D    Em
For the powers that be, the girl and her dreams, the girl that love made blind.
