_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] The _ _ _ [Am] _ star _ [A]
that gives [E] us light _ [A] _
has been gone [C] a while, _ _ [A] _
but it's not an [E] _ _ _ [D] illusion.
_ [Bm] The [Am] _ ache _ [A]
in _ [E] my heart _ [D] _
is so much [C] a part _ _ [A] _
of who [Em] I _ _ _ [D]
am.
_ _ [G] Something [C] in your eyes [Em] took a thousand years [D] to get here.
[G] _ Something in [C] your eyes [Em] took a thousand [D] years, a thousand years.
Hold [C] me close, _ _ _
[D] _ hold [Em] me close and don't let me [D]
go.
Hold [C] me close, _ [Am] _
_ _ [Em] like I'm still more than you [G] right [D] now.
Hold [C] me _ _ [Am] close, _ [D] _ [Em] the darkness just lets [D] us see who [C] we are.
_ _ [Am] _
_ I [Em] got your light inside _
[D] _ me.
[C] _ _ _ _ [E]
I _ _ [Em] am, _ [E] I _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [Em] am.
_ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ Once _ [A]
we _ [E] are gone, _ _ [A] _
we begin to [C] forget _ [A] the very reason [E] we _ _ _ [D]
came.
_ [C] For you, _ _ _ [D] I am sure [Em] I'm there.
_ _ [D] _
Along these walls [C] of night, the stars went [D] out, we're meeting up [Em] again.
_ _ [G] _
_ Hold [C] me close, _ [D] _
_ hold [Em] me close and don't let [D] me go.
Hold [C] me _ close, _
[Am] _ _ [Em] like I'm still more than you [G] right [D] now.
Hold [C] me _ _ [Am] close, _ [D] _ [Em] the darkness just lets [D] us see who [C] we are.
_ _ [Am] _
_ I [Em] got your light inside _
[D] _ me.

_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ The stars [D] are bright, but do they [G] know _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ the [D] universe is beautiful?
Beautiful [C] but _ _ _ false.
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] You took me by [C] the hand.
I [D] thought that I was leading [G] you, but it was [D] you made me [C] your man.
_ [D] My ship, I [Em] dream where [D]
you are [C] _ _ _ standing [D] in the hall.
[Em] She tells me I can [D] do it [C] all.
I rest weeks to [D] my nightmares.
[Em] Don't fear your world, it [D] isn't there.
_ [C] _ She's playing [D] on the strand.
[Em] She buried the boy [D]
beneath the sand.
[C] _ I'm a sinsman, [D] I will be [Em] the death of her.
It [D] was [C] not me.

_ _ [Em] Alice.
_ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
She said [C] free yourself, [A] to be yourself.
[Em] If only you [D] could see yourself.
[C] Free yourself, to [Am] be yourself.
[Em] If only you [D] could
