Am Ddim7 Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
Fmaj7
Behold this night, still and clear
Fmaj7 C F C
You look here just like an angel sleeping
Fmaj7
I wish I could ease your fears
Fmaj7 C F C
I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping
Am
In your eyes I would hide
Fmaj7
By your side I could defy
Em7 Ddim7 / E7/D
The forces tearing us apart
Fmaj7
But reality, as it seems
C
Looking back, is that our dream
Dm G
Was fated from the start
[Chorus 1]
C G F
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
C G F
We're condemned and can only wait
C G Dm
At this time now it's far too late
Em F G
To save us from our fate
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7
I'll remain in your hold, Body, mind, heart and soul
C F C
As long as I breathe
Fmaj7
Though consequence takes its toll, All is out of our control
C C
That's how it will be
Am
So close your eyes my young bride
Fmaj7
Listen to me one last time
Em7 Ddim7 / E7/D
There's something I have to say
Fmaj7
When your faith turns to despair
C
Always will my love be there
Dm G
And never fade away
[Chorus 2]
C G F
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
C G F
We're condemned and can only wait
C G Dm
At this time now it's far too late
Em F G
To save us from our fate
Em Fmaj7
You can't save us
Em
You can't save us
Am G Fmaj7
[Chorus 3]
C G F
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
C G F
We're condemned and can only wait
C G Dm
At this time now it's far too late
Em F G
The poison's in our veins
C G Fmaj7
It's true...
Ddim7 Am G Fmaj7
You know that I'd die for you...
