Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]You have many houses,
one for every [D]season
[G]Mountains in your windows,
violet[C]s in y[D]our hands
[C]Through your English [Bm]meado[C]ws
your blue- eyed horses [D]wander
[C]You're in Colorado for [D]the Spring

[Verse 2]
[G]When the Winter finds you,
you fly to where [D]it's summer
[G]Rooms that face the ocean,
[C]moonlight on your [D]bed
[C]Mermaids swift as dol[Bm]phins pai[C]nt
the air with dia[D]monds
You [C]are like a [Dsus4]seagull as you s[C]aid[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]Why do you fly bright feathered
sometimes in my [G]dreams?
The shadows [F]of your wings
fall over [C]my face
I can feel no [F]air, I can [D]find no [F]peace
Brides [C]in black ribbon[F]s, witches in white
Fly in through windows,
[C]fly out [G]through the [C]night

[Verse 4]
Why do I think I'm dying
sometimes in [G]my dreams
I see myself a [F]child running [Am]through
the trees
Searching for myself, looking for my life
Looking [F]everywhere crawling
[Am]on my [F]knees[Am]
I [F]cannot see the [Am]leaves,
I cannot see the [G]light
[D][B]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Then I see you walking just[Bm]
beyond the forest
[Em]Walking very quickly, [Bm]walking by yourself
[Em]Your shoes are silver,
your [Bm]coat is made of velvet
[Em]Your eyes are shining,
your [Bm]voice is sweet and clear
[C]"Come on" you say "come with me,
I'm [Bm]going to the castle"

[Verse 6]
[C]All the bells are ringing,
the [Bm]weddings have begun
[C]But I can only stand here- I [Bm]cannot
move to follow
[C]I'm burning in the shadows [D]and freez
[G]ing in the sun[D]

[Interlude 1]
[C][D][C][Am][D]

[Verse 7]
[G]There are people with you
living [C]in your [D]houses
[G]People from your childhood
who re[C]member how [D]you were
You [C]were al[G]ways fly[Bm]ing,
[G]nig[C]htingale of [D]sorry
[C]Singing bird with [D]rainbows on your
wing[C]s

[Outro 1]
