[Intro]
G
[Verse]
D
To recall this time
D
For you and I to come together
Am C
To recognise
Just how badly our hearts were broken
[Verse]
G D
All the flowers fade
Am
Now the stars pale
Am
As this bitter beauty
C
Grabs you by the tail
[Verse]
G
How long will you hesitate?
D
Halfway up the trail
Am
Yes, it's dark in the trees
C
And some wounds never heal
[Chorus]
G
And you're dreaming
D
With eyes wide open
Am
Your heart has spoken
C
For the first time
[Verse]
G
All the gun-for-hire poets
D
Who try to sing so loud
Am
Just to drown out the roar
C
As the bombs hit the ground
[Verse]
G
And the band is whistling Dixie
D
For the sentimental sake
Am
That's the sound and the fury
C
Of this new dark day
[Chorus]
G
And you're dreaming
D
With eyes wide open
Am
Your heart has spoken
C
For the first time
G
For the first time
[Instrumental]
G D Am C G
[Verse]
D
All the penny wishes
Am
And trickle-down schemes
Am
And Cracker Jack box prizes
C
Splitting at the seams
[Verse]
G
And you're stand in the doorway
D Am
With your hair all in a mess
Am
You in all your glory
C
Wondering what comes next
[Chorus]
G
And you're dreaming
D
With eyes wide open
Am
Your heart has spoken
C
For the first time
[Chorus]
G
And you're dreaming
D
With eyes wide open
Am
Your heart has spoken
C
For the first time
[Chorus]
G
And you're dreaming
D
With eyes wide open
Am
Your heart has spoken
C
For the first time
G
For the first time
