A    G    D  *(bass run g f# g a) A   G    D *


A                    G
I was falling off to sleep
D           *        A
I was drawn into a dream
A                        G
And the lady there would weep
D        *              A
'till it turned into a stream
A                        G
And she let me touch her heart
D   *              A
And listen to her sing
A                       G
And she watched me fall apart
D                       E        E  G A  E  G A
Like a man who would be kiiiiing
E        G      A                   G
Ice cold water, running through her veins
E               G        A          G
Fool's gold and mirrors, reflecting nothing
E           G     A             G
Bright lady liar, bitter to the taste
E       G       A    G  D     A   E
Foolish desire, left no trail to traaaaaace

(ACOUSTIC GUITAR SOLO)

A   G   D *  A   G   D *  A   G   D  *


A                 G
So I say her name again
D      *             A
I know she knows my call
A               G
And I feel the dream begin
D      *             A
Like a shadow on the wall
A                  G      D   *  A
She's a shadooooow
A
She's a shadaw

She's a shadaw
        G
She's a shadaw

She's a shadaw
        D       E  G A  E  G A
She's a shadaw
E        G      A                   G
Ice cold water, running through her veins
E               G        A          G
Fool's gold and mirrors, reflecting nothing
E           G     A             G
Bright lady liar, bitter to the taste
E       G       A    G  D              A   E
Foolish desire, left no traaaaaaaaaaail
E        G      A                   G
Ice cold water, running through her veins
E               G        A          G
Fool's gold and mirrors, reflecting nothing
E           G     A             G
Bright lady liar, bitter to the taste
E       G       A       G     D               A  E      A  G  D * A
