Strum
D-DU-UDU
She offers me, Tibetan tea, on a flower tray.
She's the door, she's want's to score, she really needs to say:
"I once loved you a long time ago, you know.
(
)
Where the winds own forget-me-nots blow, you know.
(
)
But I couldn't let myself go, not knowing what on earth there was to know.
But I wish that I had, 'cause it makes me so sad,
that I never had one of your children".
(

2.
Across the room, inside a tomb, a chance is waxed and waned.
The night is young, why are we so hung-up, in each other's chains.
I must take her, I must make her, while the dove domains.
See the jiuce run as she flies.
Run my wings under her sighs
As the flames of enternity rise,
To lick us with the first born lash of dawn.
Oh really my dear, I can't see what we fear, with ourselves,
sat here between us
3.
And at the door, we can't say more, than just another day.
Without a sound, I turn around, and I walk away.

If you're not into capos or low singing, the easiest key to transpose to
is up a 4th for which the chords would be (old ones in brackets):
