G#
I feel you glowing in the dark
Cm
When I collapse into your arms
A#                          Fm
I'm just a stranger in the stars

       G#
Cause somehow it seems when I am with you
     Cm
That all of my dreams begin to come true
    A#                      Fm
And carefully you carry me away

Chorus:
G#         Cm                 A#
I've never felt so wide awake
Fm
'Cause I'm wonder struck
G#              Cm                 A#
I love how you take my breath away
Fm
I'm thunderstruck
G#               Cm                  A#
To tell you the truth, I'm so afraid
(I'm so afraid)
Fm
That I'm out of luck
G#              Cm                 A#
I love how you take my breath away
(Take my breath away)
Fm
I'm thunderstruck

I chase the phantoms down the hall
I felt the floorboards rise and fall
I lost and never loved at all

I find in the days when you're in my dreams
The orchestra plays the prettiest themes
And carefully you carry me away

Chorus

Cm          A#
Woah, I'm leaving the world behind
     G#
(All of my dreams)
         A#
(Oh, and my dreams are shattered)
Cm        A#                         G#
Woah, I'm over the moon tonight (All of my dreams)
         A#
(Oh, and my dreams are shattered)
         G#
'Cause somehow it seems (when I am with you)
     Cm
That all of my dreams (begin to come true)
    A#                      Fm
And carefully you carry me away

    D#/G     G#   A# Cm
You take my breath away
     D#/G     G#        A#     Cm
When I'm with you (when I'm with you)
    D#/G   G#
And all my dreams
        A#            Cm         Fm D#/G
Oh, and my dreams are shattered
      G#         A#
(When I look at you)
    Fm         D#/G
My dreams are shattered
      G#         A#
(When I look at you)
