Chords with lyrics
Verse:
A minorAm E MajorE
Blue eyes of fire
FF C majorC
sweet desire is bitter torture,
G+G C majorC
You are no fathers daughter,
G+G C majorC
No man has this much to offer,
A minorAm E MajorE
Skin dark as sin,
FF C majorC
Soft and when, We took cover,
G+G C majorC
From the rain, And the thunder,
G+G C majorC
Under stained glass we did slumber,
G+G C majorC
Till the sun came out to blind us,
A minorAm E MajorE FF
Till we could not see anything,
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
So we knew at once we were meant to be,
FF C majorC FF C majorC
And we heard the gods all rise and say,
FF C majorC G+G
The love we made is no lie.
Chorus:
G+G FF C majorC
And the 30 years of hopes and fears breathing down my neck,
G+G
Such a sad sad thing i set you free,
FF C majorC
'Cuz I can't get you back.
G+G C majorC
You are fire, you are water.
G+G C majorC
When you dance, it is torture.
G+G C majorC A minorAm E MajorE FF
Maybe some night by the grey light of the dull moon we can meet,
Verse:
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
Tangled, entwined, we have climbed, we have wrangled,
G+G C majorC
shiny sequins sparked and spangled,
G+G C majorC
Our hearts iron-cuffed and mangled,
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
We spent the night, By the side of the water,
G+G C majorC
Past the breakers and the markers,
G+G C majorC
We swam out into the darkness,
G+G C majorC
Till we could not feel the bottom.
A minorAm E MajorE FF
Till we could not feel anything.
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
And the shoreline slowly drifted out of reach,
FF C majorC FF C majorC
As the moon shone down and the ocean heaved,
FF C majorC G+G
And darkness gave to the light.
Chorus:
G+G FF C majorC
And with 30 years of hopes and fears breathing down my neck,
G+G FF C majorC
Such a sad sad thing i set you free, 'Cuz I can't get you back.
G+G C majorC
You are fire, you are water.
G+G C majorC
When you dance, it is torture.
G+G C majorC A minorAm FF
Maybe some day on the bottom of the ocean we can meet.
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
Though we know if we do, we can never leave,
A minorAm E MajorE FF C majorC
'Cuz the moment that we turn away
FF C majorC
The gods will say
FF C majorC G+G
