[Verse 1]
F
Here by the lake, what a vision you are

       E
In the light of the emerald star

     F
I've come for you, my love

Am        G             Am
Through a window in the dark

Dm
Don't you know you're my everything?

     C                         Am
If I lost you, I think I would die

    F                         E
Was everything you said just a lie?
[Chorus]
C
You never loved me

       Dm                  Am
I came all the way through time and space

   G         Am      G           F
To take you away and out of this place

         C
With the moonlight in your eyes

           Dm                Am
You're the brightest star in all of the sky

     G            Am          G          F     E
I'll cry and I'll cry if your light ever dies
[Verse 2]
F
Oh, what a jewel are you

     G                  E
And, oh, what a fool am I

    F
For squandering my love

Am    G              Am
On an emerald in the sky

Dm
Way out here in the void

       C                  Am
Is the loneliest place to die

     F                        E
When everything you loved is a lie
[Chorus]
C
You never loved me

       Dm                  Am
I came all the way through time and space

   G         Am      G           F
To take you away and out of this place

          C
You're an emerald in the sky

          Dm              Am
You light up the night by blinkin' your eyes

     G            Am          G          F     E
I'll cry and I'll cry if your light ever dies
