Verse 1

            Dm              F
She was standing in the dark
Gm                   riff 1
Waiting in the wings
Dm    F               Gm
Just around the next dream
             Dm           F
She was holding all the keys
   Gm
To set my heart free
  Bb       C          Dm
Behind the shadows of love

Verse 2

            Dm              F
From the distance I could see
    Gm
Her standing alone
Dm           F            Gm
Shine like a jewel in the night
Dm                F
Hidden from the eyes
  Gm
A thief of the soul
  Bb       C          Dm7
Behind the shadows of love

Chorus [with wah-wah]

Am                      C
Set me on fire with the stories you tell
Em                   Bb
Drown in an ocean of dreams
Am                    C
Close to the flame on wings of desire
Em                Bb
Nothing’s what it seems

Verse 3

            Dm     F
She was waiting outside
     Gm
With arms open wide
Dm       F                Gm
Ready to break my heart’s fall
       Dm                   F
Oh the lightening in her eyes
   Gm
I learned how to fly
  Bb       C          Dm
Behind the shadows of love
