[Bm] [C#] [A]
[G] [F#m] [B] [Bm]
There's an old tale wrought with mystery of time, [A] the poet and his muse
And a magic lake [G] which gave a life [F#m] to the works the poet [B] [Bm] used
Now the muse, she was his happiness and [A] he rhymed about her grace
And told [G] the stories of treasures deep [A] beneath the [B] blackened [Bm] waves
Still in the stillness of wonder and [A] still in its mystic crown
[F#m] The muse, she went [G] down to the lake [A] and in the waves [Bm] she drowned
[G] And now to see your love [A] set free, [Bm] you will need the witch's [E] cabin key
[Em] Find the lady of the light [A] gone mad with the night, [G] that's how [A] you [Bm] reshape destiny
The poet came down to the lake [A] to call her to his dear
[F#m] When there was [G] no answer, he [F#m] was overcome [Bm] with fear
He searched in vain for his treasure, lost and [A] too soon the night would fall
And only his [G] own echo would [A] wail back as [Bm] his call
[E] [Bm] And when he swore to bring back his love [A] by stories he'd create
Nightmares [G] shifted in their sleep [A] in the darkness of [B] the [Bm] lake
[G] And now to see your love [A] set free, [Bm] you will need the witch's [E] cabin key
[Em] Find the lady of the light [A] still raving in the night, [G] that's how [A] you reshape [Bm] destiny
[E] [Bm]
In the dead of night she came to him [A] with darkness in her eyes
[G] Wearing a morning gown, [E] sweet words as [B] her [Bm] disguise
He took her in without [Em] a word for he saw [F#m] his grave mistake
And bowed the boat [G] to silence [A] deep [B] beneath the [Bm] lake
Now if it's real or just a dream, [A] one mystery remains
For it is [G] said on moonless nights, [F#m] they may still haunt [Bm] this place
And [E]
[G] [D] [A]
[Bm] [E]
[Em] [F#m] [Bm]
[G] [A] [Bm]
[A] [G] now to see your [A] love set free, [Bm] you will need the witch's [E] cabin key
[Em] Find the lady of the [A] light gone mad with the [G] night, that's how you [A] reshape [Bm] destiny
[Em] And [F#m]
[G] now to see your love set [A] free,
[Bm] you will need the [E] witch's cabin key
[Em] Find the lady of the light [F#m] still raving in the night, [G] that's [A] how you reshape [B] destiny
