Tears Of The Dragon

[Intro] 
Am   C   Am   C 
 
[Verse] 
Am                  C 
    For too long now, there were secrets in my mind 
Am                  C 
    For too long now, there were things I should have said 
Am                 C 
    In the darkness, I was stumbling for the door 
Am                  C                                  Am 
    To find a reason, to find the time, the place, the hour 
                Em                 G             D 
Waiting for the winter sun and the cold light of day 
Am                     Em 
    The misty ghost of childhood fears 
    G                          D 
The pressure is building and I can't stay away. 
 
[Chorus] 
  Em      C      G      D 
I throw myself into the sea 
   Em       C 
Release the wave 
       G         D 
Let it wash over me 
   Em       C      G      D 
To face the fear I once believed 
    Em           C          G           D 
The tears of the dragon for you and for me 
 
[Verse] 
Am            C 
   Where I was, I had wings that couldn't fly 
Am            C 
   Where I was, I had tears I couldn't cry 
Am            C                  Am 
   My emotions, frozen in an icy lake 
                    C                       Am 
I couldn't feel them until the ice began to break 
                Em             G          D 
I have no power over this, you know I'm afraid 
Am                       Em             G 
   The walls I built are crumbling, the water is moving, 
    D 
I'm slipping away. 
 
[Chorus] 
  Em      C      G      D 
I throw myself into the sea 
   Em       C 
Release the wave 
       G         D 
Let it wash over me 
   Em       C      G      D 
To face the fear I once believed 
    Em           C          G           D 
The tears of the dragon for you and for me 
 
[Verse] 
Am           Em       G        D 
   Slowly I awake,    slowly I rise 
Am                       Em 
   The walls I built are crumbling, 
    G 
The water is moving, 
    D 
I'm slipping away. 
 
[Chorus] 
  Em      C      G      D 
I throw myself into the sea 
   Em       C 
Release the wave 
       G         D 
Let it wash over me 
   Em       C      G      D 
To face the fear I once believed 
    Em           C          G           D 
The tears of the dragon for you and for me 
 
  Em      C      G      D 
I throw myself into the sea 
   Em       C 
Release the wave 
       G         D 
Let it wash over me 
   Em       C      G      D 
To face the fear I once believed 
    Em           C          G           D 
The tears of the dragon for you and for me
