tuning half step down

Em, C, D, A, Cmaj7 (2x)

    Em
The breath of a notion on a temperate breeze
C
Stirs my emotion, it begins unseen
         D                                    A     Cmaj7
Till the hunger grows and love starts to take hold
   Em
In vivid reflections, see it all too clear
C
Taint our affections through our crystal tears
       D                               A     Cmaj7
Till a cold and frozen love has to let go

          C               D              B           Em
Desperate dreams sail the ocean tides on long summer nights
D      C           D                 Em
In too deep, pure emotion guides the way
      C            D                  B            Em
Our esteem for the laughter dies with tears in our eyes
D         C              Am   D   Em
Sometimes love takes the long way home

Em, C, D, A, Cmaj7

   Em
My faint recollections of a young boy's dream
C
Searching for something of sublime extreme
         D                             A       C
Why does everything I touch crumble to dust?
Em
Love on its journey, crossing wild frontiers
   C
We chase our adventures as we face our fears
       D                                 A     C
In the fray we lose our way, stumble and rust

A* B*     C               D              B           Em
Desperate dreams sail the ocean tides on long summer nights
D      C           D                 Em
In too deep, pure emotion guides the way
      C            D                  B            Em
Our esteem for the laughter dies with tears in our eyes
D         C              Am   D   Em
Sometimes love takes the long way home

Em, C, D, A, C (3x)

A* B*     C               D              B           Em
Desperate dreams sail the ocean tides on long summer nights
D      C           D                 Em
In too deep, pure emotion guides the way
      C            D                  B            Em
Our esteem for the laughter dies with tears in our eyes
D         C              Am   D   Em
Sometimes love takes the long way home
