Verse
A Dsus2 Bm D
From the dark it appeared
A Dsus2 Bm D
D splendid mystery, oh, it drew me near
A Dsus2 Bm D
Towards a path far from home
A Dsus2 Bm D
And I knew I had to go forth alone
[Chorus 2]
A E F#m E D
Deep in the heart of this lone bridge
A Bm B D
D sudden terror overtook me
A E F#m E D
Continue blindly or turn back
A Bm B D
At risk of burdening the wood and rope I’d already passed?
[Interlude]
A-E-E D A-E-E D
[Bridge]
N.C.
Somehow I fought
N.C.
Back against uncertainty
N.C.
The harsh bite of jealousy
N.C.
Prayers she had sent for me
[Verse 3]
A Dsus2 Bm D
To embark upon
A Dsus2 Bm D
Something they had never done
A Dsus2
Out of fear
Bm D
Fear of pain
A Dsus2 Bm D
But keeping static felt exactly the same
[Chorus 3]
A E F#m E D
From underneath, the dark waves riled
A Bm D
After a wind blew by, removing
A E F#m A D
D pair of glasses from my face
A Bm D
And it occurred to me it wasn’t worth just staying in place
