Chords

[Intro] Em Am C x2 [Verse 1]
Em                    Am
  I see shadow and light

C
Stroking the mist

Em                          Am
  And I hear voices take flight

    C
And send out our wish

Em                          Am
  Of peaceful dreams on a night

C         Em     Am   C
Moonlight kissed
[Verse 2]
    Em                               Am
When  Tendrils of smoke lash the street

    C
And shamelessly court

Em                   Am
  Disguised honey sweet

   C
To cater all sorts

Em                       Am
  And hushed tones all agree

        C        Em   Am   C
And the world distorts
[Prechorus]
Am             Em
  Wishing on a speck of dust

        F#             B
In this crazy ocean of fate

Am              Em
  An echo of a memory

          F#               B
And maybe just a little too late
[Verse 3]
Em                        Am
  Fingers of blue on the snow

C
Reaching to touch

Em                       Am
  The warm light still aglow

 C
Across the porch

Em                          Am
  We watch the scene die untold

   C           Em   Am  
Outside our window
[Chorus]
Am                     Em
  For my words are the salt of lust

         F#   B
On that ivory skin

Am             Em
  Difficult to hear at all

            F#       B
Through the everyday din

Am        G       Dm       F  
  What is this if not some witchcraft?

Am           G     Dm
  Wrapped up widdershins

                 F
To lead us all astray

        G
Hook in mouth

   Em7          Am7     Dm7
On through such webs of lies

          G7      Cmaj7
Truth's a distant star

   D
In our eyes

F  G         Am
   Moonlight kissed
[Interlude] Em Am C x2 [Verse 5]
Em                Am
  New day comes again

       C
And it laughs in your face

Em                        Am
  Whispering secrets of pain

   C
By all its names

Em                                Am
  What flame could burn out the stain

     C         Em   Am   C 
Of a life misplaced?
[Chorus]
Am             Em
  But summer's scent still lingers

F#      B
In your hair

Am            Em
  Despite the ache

              F#   B
There's magic everywhere

Am        G      Dm    F
  Out the window run rebellion

Am          G       Dm
  Rapt with all you find

                      F 
For seeking something new

     G      Em7        Am7      Dm7
Play in the ponds like summer's wind

      G7       Cmaj7    Fmaj7     Dm7
Dance with the trees melding with mist

  G7         Cmaj7  D
Beyond their flower field like

F        G         Am
  You're moonlight kissed
