Em
Blinded I am and so are you
                D
By shedding tears
Em
The confusion that separates us two
           D
We hold dear

Am
Just look into my eyes
F                   C
Kiss our fears goodbye

Chorus:
      G D/F#            Em
i'm reaching for your shadow
  D      C  G   Bm
drowning in the kiss of dawn
G    D/F#     Em       D       C
touching the pain you left me with
G       Bm      D Em
at the kiss of dawn

I'm tired of the games I'm playing with you
When you're not here
Death frees from the fear of dying, it's true
Have no fear

Let me look into your eyes
See death pass us by

Chorus

I'm reaching for your shadow drowning in
The kiss of dawn

I'm reaching for your shadow drowning in
(The kiss of dawn)
Touching the pain that you left me with
(At the kiss of dawn)
Ooh I'm reaching for your shadow drowning in
(The kiss of dawn)
Touching
