Chords

Note: this is based on the tabs and sheet music available at http://www.savatage.com/newsavatage/multimedia/other.html. I've tried my best to do a version with just chords, but if anyone has suggestions for making it more accurate, I'd love to see them! [Intro] Em D C (x2) [Verse]
Em           D              C
No life's so short it can't turn around

Em                   D           C
You can't spend your life living underground

Em        D              C
For from above you don't hear a sound
[Chorus]
        G
And I'm out here, waiting

  C                         D
I don't understand what you want me to be

         G                        C
It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am

      D                           Em    D   C
But I know that it's all that you see
Em D C [Verse]
Em           D             C
No life's so short that it never learns

Em          D             C
No flame so small that it never burns

Em         D            C
No page so sure that it never turns
[Chorus]
        G
And I'm out here, waiting

  C                         D
I don't understand what you want me to be

         G                        C
It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am

      D                           G
But I know that it's all that you see
[Canon section] 1.
G                           D/F#                         C
Can you live your life in a day, putting every moment in play?

                            D                     G
Never hear a word that they say as the wheels go around

                            D/F#                                C
Tell me if you win would it show in a thousand years, who would know?

                            D
As a million lives come and go on this same piece of ground
2.
G         D/F#
I've been waiting

  C                         D
I don't understand what you want me to be

         G           D/F#
It's the dark you're hating

     C                    D
It's not who I am, but it is what you see
3.
G
Tell me would you really want to

D/F#
See me leave this night without you

C
Would you ever look about you

D                        G
Wondering where we might be
New York is so far away now
D/F#
Tokyo, Berlin and Moscow

C
Only dreams from here but somehow

D                          G
One day that world we will see
4.

What I see.
[Guitar solo] G D/F# C D (x4) [Outro]
  G                     D/F#
I swear on tomorrow, if you take this chance

    C                          D
Our lives are this moment, the music the dance

    G                         D/F#
And here in this labyrinth of lost mysteries

C                       D                           G
I close my eyes on this night and you're all that I see
D/F# C D
                  G
You're all that I see
D/F# C D G
