The return of the Thin White Duke,
  F#               D
throwing darts in lovers' eyes

Am
Here are we, one magical moment,
 F                  G                    Am  F G
such is the stuff from where dreams are woven
Am
Bending sound, dredging the ocean,
 F          G    Am F G
lost in my circle
Am
Here am  I, flashing no colour
 F                G               Am   F G
tall in this room overlooking the ocean
Am
Here are we, one magical movement from
 F         G     Am F G
Kether to Malkuth
Am
There are you, drive like a demon from
  F          G    Am F G
station to station

The return of the Thin White Duke,
throwing darts in lovers' eyes
The return of the Thin White Duke,
throwing darts in lovers' eyes
The return of the Thin White Duke,
making sure white stains

G
Once there were mountains on mountains
                    Bm
and once there were sunbirds to soar
         D             A        G
with and once I could never be down
G
Got to keep searching and searching
              Bm
Oh, what will I be believing
      D          A            G
and who will connect me with love?
Dm                             G
Wonderful, wonderful, wonder when
G                F#m       F           C D E A E F#m
Have you sought fortune, evasive and shy?
  G          F#m         F           C D E A E F#m
Drink to the men who protect you and I
  G            F#m
Drink, drink, drain your glass,
  F               C D E A E F#m G
raise your glass high

      A
It's not the side-effects of the cocaine
      Bm                      G
I'm thinking that it must be love

Chorus:
          Bm            C
It's too late - to be grateful

It's too late - to be late again
          Bm           C
It's too late - to be hateful
    G                  A
The European Canon is here

   A
I must be only one in a million
   Bm                        G
I won't let the day pass without her

Chorus

Should I believe that I've been stricken?
Does my face show some kind of glow?

Chorus:
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European Canon is here, yes it's here

The European Canon is here

It's not the side-effects of the cocaine
I'm thinking that it must be love

Chorus:
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European Canon is here

I must be only one in a million
I won't let the day pass without her

Chorus:
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European Canon is here

Should I believe that I've been stricken?

The European Canon is here, yes it's here

It's too late
It's too late
It's too late
It's too late
It's too late
The European Canon is here
