Intro:

G+G F# minorF#m (x2)

Verse 1:

D MajorD
 As the light,
E MajorE
 Hits you,
D MajorD
 As you shift,
 G+G
A-long the floor.

Bridge 1:

D MajorD     A minorAm
 I find it hard,
     A augmentedA
To place my face.
D MajorD     A minorAm
 How did I come,
      A augmentedA
To be here, anyway?
D MajorD       A minorAm
 It's terribly vague,
    G+G      F# minorF#m
What's gone before.

Verse 2:

D MajorD
 I could have,
   E MajorE
Been anyone.
D MajorD
 You could have,
     G+G
Been any-one's dream.

Bridge 2:

D MajorD      A minorAm
 Why did you have to,
      A augmentedA
Choose our moment?
D MajorD      A minorAm
 Why did you have to,
    A augmentedA
Make me feel that?
D MajorD      A minorAm
 Why did you make it,
G+G     F# minorF#m
 So unreal?

Verse 3:

D MajorD
 All the colours,
   E MajorE
Look brighter now,
D MajorD
 Everything they say,
G+G
 Seems to sound new.

Bridge 3:

D MajorD      A minorAm
 Slipping in-to,
     A augmentedA
Tomorrow too quick,
D MajorD     A minorAm
 Yesterday always,
  A augmentedA
Too good to forget.
D MajorD     A minorAm
 Stop the swing,
       G+G
Of the pendu-lum;
    F# minorF#m
Let us through!

And never get out again.
