D    C#m       Bm       Am    A#   C      D
Life is empty, can't remember any-time before
D    C#m       Bm      Am     A#  C       D
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore
C        Em          A#          Em          A#
Gliding through this life, and another is a child
           C     Em         C      A#
And we're doing games, and losing things
C       Em      C  Am
Always playing gigs

D         C#m    Bm    Am        D        C#m         Bm     Am
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the stars shine bright
           D      Bm    G A#   C  D
Where the sun is shining, in the night
D    C#m    Bm   Am      D        C#m     Am
I am in disgrace, yet I see your smiling face
D     C#m   Bm  G      A#     C    D    G
And I hope you let me, share your place
G   D     Em  Bm Em
I  don't live today

Chorus:
Em            D                    G D Em
Rain in the sky,  make the world fly
      D                 Em
Into time, beg me your time
Em           D                   G D Em
Sun in the sky, make the world fly
      D                 Em
Into time, beg me your time - x3

Em
Well, I lived in magic solitude
Bm
Of cloudy-looking mountains
Am
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops ...
Em
Roaming through Space tenthousand years ago
Bm
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis
Am
Sinking to eternal waves of darkness ...

Em
Somewhere in the blue distance
Bm
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
Am
A broken violin floating alone in December
Em
Darkness everywhere and nothing more

Symbol - strange Symbol - Melancholy
Painting torrid colors to a sky of green
Candle breathing one night only
Far away - in chillness - bleak - unseen

Drifting galley - ghostlike shadow
Sails rigged to catch and kill the Time
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
To call the Thing... Sublime
