[G] [Dm] [G]
[F] [G]
[Dm] [G]
Long ago I heard a tale I never will recall.
The time was in the [F] tallying [G] of the fantasy we set.
The sky was rolling [F] brightly [G] and the day had ended.
She washed her [F] hair on the snow [G] that saw the distant stars.
I will be found among the corn and pears and the bees.
But there is more to [Dm] come, my boy, before [G] you touch the bell.
Men will come and [Gm] break the silence, no one will know.
But they will make a [Dm] beating heart [G] as I have made my own.
What is the cost?
It's the [Dm] spark.
[F] [C] [Gm]
It's the [Bb] tear.
[C] [E] It's [Gm] the spark.
Oh, she's not the bee.
No, I take for the star.
Oh, don't come crashing down again before they reach the spark.
She turned to face the [F] setting sun.
[Gm] I turned to walk away.
But then she called my name again and beckoned me to stay.
What is the cost?
It's the spark.
Oh, bring the [Dm] spark.
[C] It's the tear.
Just [Bb] as I said.
[C] [E] Oh, yes.
[Gm] She pulled me out from famous songs who write their name to this.
But be glad now before the time has come for our release.
[Dm] [F] [C]
[Gm] [C] [E]
[C] It was [G]
[Em] me.
[C] [Em] Lights were gone.
[G] [D] But she [Em] tells [C]
[D] for the gift [G] that she [Em] would sell.
[G] For the sight that [Em] she knows.
[D] For a vision [Em] that still glows.
With a dream [G] [C] in her [G] eyes, no one's here.
[C] [Em]
It
[C] [Em]
[G]
[Gm] was so close along the day that I could hardly tell.
But what she said was heaven sent or brought some male hell.
But then a thought would stand alone and still be close to mine.
Just as the Romans cast their long-awaited gold to die.
That
[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [C] [E]
[C] day, [G]
that [Em] coming day,
[C] even now, [G] she waits [Em] for her.
For [G] the tale [D] [Em] she tells.
[C] For [D] the gift [G] that she [Em] will sell.
[G] For the sight [D] she [Em] knows.
[C]
[D] For the vision [Em] that still glows.
With a [G] dream [C] in her eyes, no [Bm] one's here.
[C] [Em]
[G]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

oh.
