[Verse 1]
Emaj7
Behold this night, still and clear
Emaj7 B E B
You look here just like an angel sleeping
Emaj7
I wish I could ease your fears
Emaj7 B E B
I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping
G#m
In your eyes I would hide
Emaj7
By your side I could defy
D#m7 Ddim7 / D#7/C#
The forces tearing us apart
Emaj7
But reality, as it seems
B
Looking back, is that our dream
C#m F#
Was fated from the start
[Chorus 1]
B F# E
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
B F# E
We're condemned and can only wait
B F# C#m
At this time now it's far too late
D#m E F#
To save us from our fate
[Verse 2]
Emaj7
I'll remain in your hold, Body, mind, heart and soul
B E B
As long as I breathe
Emaj7
Though consequence takes its toll, All is out of our control
B B
That's how it will be
G#m
So close your eyes my young bride
Emaj7
Listen to me one last time
D#m7 Ddim7 / D#7/C#
There's something I have to say
Emaj7
When your faith turns to despair
B
Always will my love be there
C#m F#
And never fade away
[Chorus 2]
B F# E
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
B F# E
We're condemned and can only wait
B F# C#m
At this time now it's far too late
D#m E F#
To save us from our fate
D#m Emaj7
You can't save us
D#m
You can't save us
G#m F# Emaj7
[Chorus 3]
B F# E
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
B F# E
We're condemned and can only wait
B F# C#m
At this time now it's far too late
D#m E F#
The poison's in our veins
B F# Emaj7
It's true...
Ddim7 G#m F# Emaj7
You know that I'd die for you...
G#m Em C
