[E] [G] [F] [G]

[Cm] [E]
[F] [G] [C]
I saw you tonight by the light of the shining [F] black stars that circle my heart
[C] I saw you come in though it was dim
I [F] have been listening from the beginning
When [Bb]
you arrived it was as if we had both died
[F]
And gone somewhere else, you and myself
[Bbm] That [Bb]
otherworldly feeling came over me, staining
[F] my mind was reeling, blood bleeding
[C] red
Like my guitar, whoever you are
[F] Cold [Fm] in the [F] night, I think you're right
[C] To whisper and listen like flowers glisten
[F] In a quiet garden, the moon is wizened and it is [C] old
As a toad in a Chinese story
The
[G]
fallen glory of my ego
Is
[F] laid at the feet of all our purposes
And my [C] purpose is to keep on dreaming
I
[Bb]
am fishing for wishes
That's [F] where you come in, though it was dim
When [Bb]
you arrived it was as if we had both died
[F]
And gone somewhere else, you and myself
[F]
[Cm] [E]
[F] [G] [C]
