Lyrics (with chord prompt above)


Verse 1:

           Bm                         
There's an old tale wrought with the mystery of Tom
    Asus2
the poet and his muse
      F#m               G
and a magic lake which gave a life
       A         F#m    
to the words the poet used


Segway Riff:

        Bm
Now the muse she was his happiness
        Asus2
and he rhymed about her grace
    F#m                 G
And told her stories of treasures deep
    A       F#m
Beneath the blackened waves


Segway Riff:

      Bm
'Till in the stillness of one dawn
      Asus2
still in its mystic crown
    F#m                G
the muse she went down to the lake
    A       F#m      Bm
and in the waves she drowned


Chorus:

G                                 A
     And now to see your love set free
Bm                                   E
     You will need the witch's cabin key
Em7                             F#m
Find the lady of the light gone mad with the night
G                    A
     That's how you reshape destiny


Segway Riff:

    Bm   
The poet came down to the lake
   Asus2
to call out to his dear
F#m                G
when there was no answer
       A   F#m
he was overcome with fear


Segway Riff:

   Bm
He searched in vain for his treasure lost
        Asus2
and too soon the night would fall
    F#m          G
and only his own echo
           A    F#m
would wail back as his call


Segway Riff:
   
    Bm
And when he swore to bring back his love
       Asus2
by the stories he'd create
F#m                G
nightmares shifted in their sleep
       A         F#m     Bm
in the darkness of the lake


Chorus:

G                                   A
       And now to see your love set free
Bm                                     E
       You will need the witch's cabin key
Em7                              F#m
Find the lady of the light still ravin' in the night
G                      A
       That's how you reshape destiny


Segway Riff:

       Bm
In the dead of night she came to him
      Asus2
with darkness in her eyes
F#m           G
   wearing a mourning gown
      A        F      Bm
sweet words as her disguise

   Bm
He took her in without a word
       Asus2
for he saw his grave mistake
    F#m                 G
and vowed them both to silence
A      F#m       Bm
deep beneath the lake

    Bm 
Now if its real or just a dream
    Asus2
one mystery remains
    F#m           G
for it is said on moonless nights
     A         F#m        Bm (let ring)
they may still haunt this place
