Mandolin Orange


Tom: Am

Am
Daylight had spoken
                C/G  Cmaj7/G
So clear and so plain
                 Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
I'm the keeper of nothing
           Am
But an old flame
              C/G  Cmaj7/G
Consuming the shadows
             Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
Caught in the light
           Am    G
Blinded by hunger
                Fmaj7
And fed to the night


[Pre-Chorus 1]
               C              G                 Am
Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight


[Instrumental Chorus]
Am  C/G  Cmaj7/G  Fmaj7/C  Csus4  Am


[Verse 2]
Am
My heart was reaching
                 C/G  Cmaj7/G
So tangled, entwined
                    Fmaj7/C
Like vines in the willow
         Csus4                Am
Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs
          C/G  Cmaj7/G
Glory was calling
                     Fmaj7/C Csus4
She wailed and she whined
          Am  A5/E  G
Higher and higher
               Fmaj7
"Leave it all behind"


[Pre-Chorus 2]
               C              G                 Am
Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find


[Instrumental Chorus]
Am  C/G  Cmaj7/G  Fmaj7/C  Csus4  Am


[Verse 3]
Am
My search was unending
               C/G  Cmaj7/G
And my soul was bare
                 Fmaj7/C Csus4              Am
And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare
           C/G  Cmaj7/G
Out of the ocean
                  Fmaj7/C Csus4
The stars had all gone
                Am  G
My heart was broken
              Fmaj7
Lost and alone


[Coda]
               C/G  Cmaj7/G                       Am
Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home


[Outro]
Am  C/G  Cmaj7/G  Fmaj7/C  Csus4  Am
