Intro
   A   F#m(Repeat) 
ALast night I drF#mifted dAown to the docF#mks
AThe water, gliF#mttering and blaAck.F#m  
AThe snow fell liF#mghtly Aand disappeF#mared.
AI felt the oF#mld ropes grow slAack.F#m  
BmI thought I'd disEsolve Bmwhen the beacon Erevolved.
                                         D       A       F#m(Repeat)
I just get carried, so carried, carried away.
AOnce I had a shF#mip, yAes I had a maF#mp
AI had the wiF#mnd like a trAee has sapF#m  
BmI sank intEo Bmthese banks of cElay
DI just get carried, so carried, carried…
GThose rooms were frEmeezing Band always dAbmark but where we were never maGttered
GYour head was goEmlden, there was lBightning in your aAbmrms and then the glass sGhattered.
AIt was noon at midnF#might., thAe day that never enF#mds
AThe lamp it whiF#mspers aAnd makes amendF#ms
Bmeverything was Emore Bmthan I took it fEor.
                                          D      A    F#m(Repeat)
I just get carried, so carried, carried away.

Those rooms were freezing and always dark but where we were never mattered

Your head was golden, there was lightning in your arms and then the glass shattered.
