For those of us who don't want to tune our guitars down 1/2 a step, here is a standard
tuning version.
I found it easiest to just play the barred version of most chords
Intro:
C# C# G#m F#
C# C# B F#
Verse 1:
C# G#m F#
Symphony of silver tears
C# B F#
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears
C# G#m F#
Overcast these gloomy nights wear on
C# B F#
But I'm holding fast because it's darkest is just before the dawn
Pre-Chorus:
G#m E B
I sang my princess fast asleep
F# G#m
'Cause she was my dream come true
E B F#
Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you
G#m E B
But now those lonely lullabies
F# C#m
Just dampen my tired eyes
E F#
Because I can't forget you
C#m E F#
Because I can't forget you
Chorus:
C# G#m
I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
B F#
When the nightmares take me
C# G#m
I will scream with the howling wind
B F# C#
'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream
Interlude: C# G#m B F# x2
Verse 2:
Dizzy love turned a star lily pink
And hung above our lids too flushed to blink
But icy blue froze the fairytale cold
Though I treasured you and you sparkled with someone to hold
Pre-Chorus
Chorus x2
Interlude ("And I'd rather dream" after the first part)
Bridge:
E G#m F# E
Annmarie, I'll never forget you
G#m F# E
Annmarie, I'll never forget you
G#m F# E
Annmarie, (remember me) I'll never forget you
G#m F# E
Annmarie, (remember me) I'll never forget you
G#m F# E
Annmarie, (remember me) I'll never forget you
End on E
