A 
I was the one who had it all 
A                      D 
I was the master of my fate 
Bm      F#m       C#m        F#m 
I never needed anybody in my life 
D             A         E   
I learned the truth too late 
A 
I'll never shake away the pain 
A                               D 
I close my eyes but she's still there 
Bm        F#m           C#m        F#m 
I let her steal into my melancholy heart 
D              A     E 
It's more than I can bear 


[Refrão]
      D                 A 
Now I know she'll never leave me 
     D           A 
Even as she runs away 
         D        C#m 
She will still torment me 
Bm       Dm 
Calm me, hurt me 
A                  E 
Move me, come what may 
D                    A 
Wasting in my lonely tower 
D             Bm   Dm                 
Waiting by an open door 
F#m                                 A                                       
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in 
            E          A      
And be with me for evermore 

Verso 

C 
I rage against the trials of love 
C                         F 
I curse the fading of the light 
Dm             Am             Em            Am 
Though she's already flown so far beyond my reach 
F           C      G 
She's never out of sight 


[Refrão]
      F                 C 
Now I know she'll never leave me 
     F                 C 
Even as she fades from view 
         F        Em 
She will still inspire me 
Dm   Fm      C            G 
Be a part of everything I do 
F                    C 
Wasting in my lonely tower 
F             Dm   Fm     
Waiting by an open door 
Am                                  C                                            
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in 
C          Em                   Am 
And as the long, long nights begin 
Am            Em                  C 
I'll think of all that might have been 
        Am        G   C 
Waiting here for evermore
