A C#m When the Emperor rubbed his eyes Dmaj7 Fdim [ A ] An azure morning filled the skies A C#m Energized by his dream, Dmaj7 Fdim The Emperor was moved to
[Bridge]
Dmaj7 Summon his men, he ordered them ‘Find me Asus4 A C#m The whitest of stone, let its radiance remind me Dmaj7 Fdim Of all I have lost, the source of my pain C#m F#sus4 F#m C#m The joy that in time I will regain
[Chorus]
Bm7 E7sus4 [ Dmaj7 ] Let the world know, grief built the Taj Mahal

Dmaj7 Fdim As for the cost C#m F#sus4 F#m C#m What is the price of love unlost
