C#           G#m    F#
Symphony of silver tears
C#                        B          F#
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears
C#                     G#m        F#
Overcast these gloomy nights wear on
         C#                                B
But I'm holding fast because it's darkest just
           F#
before the dawn

G#m         E              B
I sang my princess fast asleep
         F#                    G#m
'Cause she was my dream come true
         E            B            F#
Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you
G#m            E           B
But now those lonely lullabies
      F#              C#m
Just dampen my tired eyes
           E             F#
Because I can't forget you
C#m        E             F#
Because I can't forget you

Chorus:
C#                      G#m
I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
B                    F#
When the nightmares take me
C#                      G#m
I will scream with the howling wind
B                      F#                   C#
'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream

Dizzy love turned a star lily pink
And hung above our lids too flushed to blink
But icy blue froze the fairytale cold
Though I treasured you and you
sparkled with someone to hold

I sang my princess fast asleep
'Cause she was my dream come true
Oh Anne Marie, believe me, I loved you
But now those lonely lullabies
Just dampen my tired eyes
Because I can't forget you
Because I can't forget you

Chorus

And I'd rather dream

E G#m      F#
     Annmarie,
                   E
I'll never forget you
      G#m  F#
Annmarie,
                   E
I'll never forget you

      G#m  F#
Annmarie,
                                 E
(remember me) I'll never forget you - x3
