CAPO: 2nd Fret 




Intro: G  C  G  D  G  C  G  Em  C   G 

                               C 
The sun is sinking in the sea 
                             G 
As she sings my life for me 
                                 D 
A tapestry of children's smiles 
                               G 
Wrapped in memories and miles 
                                      C 
You'd better do the things you dream 

See here, she said, you know it seems 
     G                 Em 
That children grow and lovers sleep 
    C                                     G 
The time that's left is yours to keep 


                              C 
Her song rises like the wave 
                                  G 
Then falls and takes me far away 
                               D 
A sorceress on hammered keys 
                         
Her fingers play my destiny 
    G                              
See here, she said, you must believe 
    C 
See here, she said, you know it seems 
     G                 Em 
That children grow and lovers sleep 
    C                                  G 
The time that's left is yours to keep 


Instrumental: G  C  G  D  G  C  G  Em  C     G 


                              C 
It tears from her like a cry 
                                 G 
Then soothes me like a lullaby 
                                             D 
I can see her sing through half-closed eyes 
                                      G                              
See here, she said, dreams never lie 
                                    C 
My dreams are visions on the wind 
                              G 
And places I have never been 
                         D 
Pictures only I can see 

Songs that sleep inside of me 
    G                              
See here, she said, you must believe 
    C 
See here, she said, you know it seems 
     G                 Em 
That children grow and lovers sleep 
    C                                   
The time that's left is yours to keep
