[Intro]
   D    A    G( G   F#   G  F#)
[Verse 1]
DDanced with wind and danced with fire
AKilled the truth and called the liar

Bleeding in its mystery when the moon began to fall
DDreamers are not all they seem,
Asleeping in her silent dream
                           Bm                  C( C   C   B    B   A   A   G  G)
She locks it all inside and hides it all away
[Chorus]
   D        A   G( G   F#   D   G  F#)

DCalling out to hAistory
GIs that the way it will always be?

An unforgotten memory when the moon begins to call
DCalled you right and called you wrong
ATime, the shadow, sings your song
