Am      G       F


[Verse]
A#                     Am   
I saw her first in a beggar's game
E                   Am               
Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame.
A#                       Am                                       
Those people knew her by another name.
E                 Am           
I knew that she'd be mine,
E                 Am          
I knew that she'd be mine.


[Chorus]
A#                  Am      
She took me in on a winter's night
E                           Am
The air was brittle and the moon was bright.
A#                          Am      
My heart was heavy but her touch was light.
E                 Am       
Deep in the dance we wandered,
E                 Am               
Deep in my heart she fell.

[Verse]
A#                            Am      
The candles glistened and the water gleamed.
E                       Am      
She drew a bath and the windows steamed;
A#                          Am              
She looked like every woman ever dreamed,
E                 Am      E
In the heart of a lonely man,
E                 Am      
In the heart of a lonely man.


[Chorus]
A#                         Am     
She took my blindness and she led me through,
 E                         Am     
As night retreated and the daylight grew.
A#                             Am              
And with the first rays of the sun I knew,
E        Am      
Love had another captive,
E        Am      A
Love had another fool.


[Post-Chorus]
A                           Bm
The spell is broken and the chains fall free,
D       A                 Bm7
Finally my heart has come home to me,
A                    D     A
It seems I've waited an eternity.
