[Bm] [F#m] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] Let me [Bm] reach out, love and touch you, [A] let me hold you for a while
[Bm] I've been all around [A] the world, oh how [E] I long to see you [Em] smile
[F#m] There's a shadow on the [A] moon, and the waters here below
Do [F#m] not shine the way they should, [Em] and I love [G] you just in case you didn't know
Let [D] it go, [F#m]
let [Bm] it happen like [D] it happened once [G] before
[D] It's a wicked [F#m] wind, and it chills me to the bone
And [Bm] if you do not [D] believe [G] me, come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
Won't [D] [A]
[Bm] you lie down by me, baby, run [A] your fingers through my hands
[Bm] I've been all around [D] the town, and still [E] I do not [C#] understand
[D] Is it me, or is it [A] you, oh the shadow of a dream
Is [F#m] it wrong to be in love, could [G] it be the finest love I've ever seen
Set [D] it free, [F#m]
let [Bm] it happen like [D] it happened once [G] before
It's [E] [D] a wicked wind, and [F#m] it chills me to the bone
And [Bm] if you do not [D] believe [G] me, come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
[D] [A]
[F#m] Please kiss me gently, darling, [A] where the river runs away
[Bm] From the mountains [D] in the [A] springtime [E] on a blue and [C#] windy day
[Bm] When there's beauty all around, [A] as the shades of night grow deep
[F#m] As the morning stars grow dim, they [G] will find us [Em] in the shadows fast asleep
Set it free, [D] let it go, [F#m]
[Bm] let it happen [D] like it happened [G] once before
[E] [D] It's a wicked wind, [F#m] and it chills me to the bone
[Bm] And if you do [D] not believe me, [G] come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
