[Intro]
G G G G
[Verse 1]
G            B11
Beautiful dawn, lights up the shore for me
          Em                      A7
There is nothing else in the world, I'd rather wake up and see (with you)
G             Em
Beautiful dawn, I'm just chasing time again
Am7                           A7sus4
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night
[Chorus]
            C  D           Em                   C
But now I'm high, running wild among all the stars above
    C D         Em                   C
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me
[Verse 2]
G            B11
Beautiful dawn, melt with the stars again.
          Em                                 A7
Do you remember the day when my journey began? Will you remember the end (of time)?
G             Em
Beautiful dawn, You're just blowing my mind again
Am7                             A7sus4
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine
[Chorus]
 C D           Em                  C
High, running wild among all the stars above
    C D         Em
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me
[Bridge]
Em                   Emb6
Will you be my shoulder, when I'm grey and older?
Em6                 Am7
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
[Chorus]
         C D           Em                 C
Getting high, running wild among all the stars above
    CD        Em                 C        G
                                           x 3
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me
