[Verse 1]
Amaj7
Behold this night, still and clear
Amaj7 E A E
You look here just like an angel sleeping
Amaj7
I wish I could ease your fears
Amaj7 E A E
I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping
C#m
In your eyes I would hide
Amaj7
By your side I could defy
G#m7 Ddim7 / G#7/F#
The forces tearing us apart
Amaj7
But reality, as it seems
E
Looking back, is that our dream
F#m B
Was fated from the start
[Chorus 1]
E B A
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
E B A
We're condemned and can only wait
E B F#m
At this time now it's far too late
G#m A B
To save us from our fate
[Verse 2]
Amaj7
I'll remain in your hold, Body, mind, heart and soul
E A E
As long as I breathe
Amaj7
Though consequence takes its toll, All is out of our control
E E
That's how it will be
C#m
So close your eyes my young bride
Amaj7
Listen to me one last time
G#m7 Ddim7 / G#7/F#
There's something I have to say
Amaj7
When your faith turns to despair
E
Always will my love be there
F#m B
And never fade away
[Chorus 2]
E B A
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
E B A
We're condemned and can only wait
E B F#m
At this time now it's far too late
G#m A B
To save us from our fate
G#m Amaj7
You can't save us
G#m
You can't save us
C#m B Amaj7
[Chorus 3]
E B A
Girl we're starcrossed and can't escape
E B A
We're condemned and can only wait
E B F#m
At this time now it's far too late
G#m A B
The poison's in our veins
E B Amaj7
It's true...
Ddim7 C#m B Amaj7
You know that I'd die for you...
