A                 Bm                    F#m
Silver falls like painted dolls they sit

Bm            E       A
Their endless days now done

   D                    A          Dm
In fields of fire their hearts retire

Dancing the China Waltz
[Verse 2]
A                   Bm                 F#m
Their younger years touched by thoughts

Bm             E     A
Their time has surely come

     D              A        Dm
With all their cares thrown away

On love of a secret Waltz

Dance me the China Waltz

E               A    C#
Under the Easter moon

F#m                       Bm
They move in silence their bodies rise and fall

E               A                 C#
Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn
[Verse 3]

The hard release steals the peaceful dream

     Bm         E      A
Then takes your breath away

    D          A              Dm
But here behind where love is blind

The sound of the China Waltz

Under the Easter moon

They move in silence their bodies rise and fall

Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn
F#m Bm E C# [Chorus]

Under the Easter moon

They move in silence their bodies rise and fall

Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn

Under the Easter moon
