Bm I sit alone in the dark, and I try to remember The words you spoke when you summoned the Ender Gmaj7 You chained my life to an ancient master Bm Will the curse be reversed if I say it backwards? What you crossed was a line at the edge of the void And you can’t crawl back without making a choice But then something escaped when you opened the gate You cheated death and sealed your fate Chorus: Bm Put on your new dress tonight Gmaj7 A Bm And look to the west, the moon's in the sky Bm I wanna get at least that high Gmaj7 A Bm Wanna leave the Earth and all things behind Bm You told me you're never gonna die Gmaj7 A Bm How am I supposed to sleep through the night? Bm You showed me the secret of life Gmaj7 A Bm I can't forget that look in your eye Been a long time gone, living out on the coast It’s a long way back from the edge of the cosmos Truths once known never come unknown I learned that lesson lives ago To die for good, it must be earned The ways of death can never be learned And the life I’ve lived is only dust The darkness comes for all of us Chorus: Put on your new dress tonight Have a look to the west, the moon’s in the sky I wanna get at least that high Wanna leave the Earth and all things behind You told me you’re never gonna die How am I supposed to sleep through the night? You showed me the secret of life I can’t forget that look in your eye You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Gmaj7  Gmaj  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
