[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Behold this night, still and clear
Cmaj7 G C G
You look here just like an angel sleeping
Cmaj7
I wish I could ease your fears
Cmaj7 G C G
I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping
Em
In your eyes I would hide
Cmaj7
By your side I could defy
Bm7 Ddim7 / B7/A
The forces tearing us apart
Cmaj7
But reality, as it seems
G
Looking back, is that our dream
Am D
Was fated from the start
[Chorus 1]
G D C
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
G D C
We're condemned and can only wait
G D Am
At this time now it's far too late
Bm C D
To save us from our fate
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
I'll remain in your hold, Body, mind, heart and soul
G C G
As long as I breathe
Cmaj7
Though consequence takes its toll, All is out of our control
G G
That's how it will be
Em
So close your eyes my young bride
Cmaj7
Listen to me one last time
Bm7 Ddim7 / B7/A
There's something I have to say
Cmaj7
When your faith turns to despair
G
Always will my love be there
Am D
And never fade away
[Chorus 2]
G D C
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
G D C
We're condemned and can only wait
G D Am
At this time now it's far too late
Bm C D
To save us from our fate
Bm Cmaj7
You can't save us
Bm
You can't save us
Em D Cmaj7
[Chorus 3]
G D C
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
G D C
We're condemned and can only wait
G D Am
At this time now it's far too late
Bm C D
The poison's in our veins
G D Cmaj7
It's true...
Ddim7 Em D Cmaj7
You know that I'd die for you...
