The dreamer and the wine
Poet without a rhyme
A widowed writer
Gm Bb C Dm Torn apart by chains of hell
One last perfect verse is still the same old song
Gm Bb Gm Oh, Christ, how I hate what I have become Bb C Take me home.... Dm C Get away, run away, fly away Dm C Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway Eb I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more Bb I cannot die A5 Ab5 G5 Gb5 F5 E5 Eb5 I, a whore for the cold world Dm C Forgive me, I have but two faces Dm C One for the world, one for God, save me Gm I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more Bb F C I cannot die, I, a whore for the cold world Dm My home was there n' then
Those meadows of Heaven
Gm Adventure-filled days Bb C Dm One with every smiling face
Please, no more words
Thoughts from a severed head
No more praise
Gm Bb Gm Tell me once my heart goes right Bb C Take me home.... Dm C Get away, run away, fly away Dm C Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway Eb I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more Bb I cannot die A5 Ab5 G5 Gb5 F5 E5 Eb5 I, a whore for the cold world Dm C Forgive me, I have but two faces Dm C One for the world, one for God, save me Gm I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more Bb F C I cannot die, I, a whore for the cold world

Everyone must bury their own
No pack to bury the heart of stone
Now he's home in hell, serves him well
Slain by the bell tolling for his farewell
Dm
The morning dawned upon his alterRemains of the dark passion play
