[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]
[C]

[Verse 1]
I don't [C]know quite
[F]what's hap[C]pening
and my eyes don't see [F]too [G]clear;
all I know is I [F]need you here,
if only to shield me from
the [Em]mood of the world
and [Dm]hold me and say it doesn't matter....
but [C]I'm like [Bb]a chi[Am]ld whose dreams are sh[Dm]attered,

[Interlude 1]
[G][Dm][G]
[C]

[Verse 2]
[C]Crowding round me: images
[F]of broken [C]thought,
lines of my life now over[F]grown.[G]
All I can feel [Am]is I'[F]m so alone,
without even your bright eyes
to [Em]reach into my mind
[Am]and say that [Dm]in my life
[Eb]I've done [Dm]right,
and [C]I'm [Bb]like [Am]a moonchild in
[Dm]the sunlight.

[Interlude 2]
[Dm][G][Dm][G][C]

[Verse 3]
So [C]cast your thoughts upon me,
[F]wherever you are[C],
that I may feel you close [F]beside [G]me
and [Asus4]hold your hand[Am],
for [F]you to guide me
through [Dm]all [F]these catacombs
which [Em]freeze me
with their touch;
un[G]knowing, [Dm]knowing so mu[Eb]ch,
[Dm]my mind cries ou[Asus4]t[Dm]
an[C]d I'm like a c[Bb]hild[Asus4]
when [Am]the l[Dm]ight's out

[Verse 4]
[Dm][G]
With [Dm]a child's fea[G]r[Asus4]
[G]of [Dm]the dark

[Outro 1]
[Dm][G][Em][Dm]
