[C]
[F] [C]
[F] I [C] dream that I saw you [F] once down [Am] in Morocco Your [C] clothes were so [F] old they were new
You [C] spoke to the [Am] Bedouins in their own language Of [C] silver and crimson [F] and blue
[Am] They said that your singing [Em] had altered their [G] vision [F] And yet nothing really had [G] changed
The [D] dust [Am] from the desert [F] rose up from your eyelids You [C] said you had conquered the [G] chains
[C] The white wind around [F] us as we stood there [C] talking Was blowing the stars [F] from the sky
[C]
I said make the beauty you [F] made long [C] ago And the dervishes world [F] while you cried
You [Am] said hold me against [G] you the weather is calling [F] My mind is the color [G] of stone
[Dm] And I [C] wrapped the [F] green silk around your thin [C] body And knew you would never [G] come home
[F] The [G] wind and the [C] sun and the [Am] sky in your [F] eyes Was [G] driving you mad I could see
[Dm] And [Em] in any [F] language I knew they were saying The [C] future is cutting us [G] free
[C] We walked in the desert [F] your hands were like velvet [C]
You told me the reason you'd stay
And all of the women [F] whose hearts had been [C] broken Stood naked and cool in the shade
[Am] The men in the village [C] were called to their worship [F] Their colors had started [G] to fade
[Dm]
The [C] shelter of [F] heaven had lifted forever [C] Their eyes were the color [G] of jade
[F] The [G] wind and the sky [C] and the sun in [Am] your eyes [F] Was driving [C] you [G] mad I could see
[Dm] And in [C] any language [F] I knew they were saying [C] The future was cutting [G] us free
[C] I left to fly back [F] to the place I was sleeping [C] Where all of my dreams had [F] been lost
[C] I wrote your name down [F] on the back of a [C] postcard And finally counted [F] the cost
[Am] The demons and [G] devils the saints and the [F] angels Had gathered to [G] show me the view
[Dm] And all [Em] of the tears [F] that had come when I met [C] you Were shining and [G] bright as the dew
The wind and the moon [C] and the sun in my [F] eyes Were [C] driving me [G] I could see
[D] And in [C] any language [F] I knew they were [C] saying The future was [G] cutting us free [F] Free
