Gilded Cage

C          Dm      C          Dm
Painted in silver, painted in gold
A                  Dm       A                     Dm
The moment ends in silence, then the moment grows old

N.C.         Dm        Gm              Dm
And when she smiles, a thousand dreams surround her
C             Dm      C          Dm
Dress them in secrets no one can hold
A                    Dm        A                  Dm
The fire dies in the distance, as the embers grow cold

A#   C      F
Sing for me now
Gm                  Dm
All the world is a stage
A#     C      F
Smile, take a bow
Em7              A
From your gilded cage

N.C.       Dm     Gm               Dm
Behind the glass, she's safe where no one can reach her
C          Dm     C             Dm
Roses with thorns just make her bleed
A                     Dm  A         Dm
A fragile porcelain angel breaks so easily

A#   C      F
Sing for me now
Gm                  Dm
All the world is a stage
A#     C      F
Smile, take a bow
Em7              A
From your gilded cage

N.C.         Dm    Gm                   Dm
The restless heart cries when no one is listening
C                 Dm       C           Dm
She's waiting for someone, waiting for you
A                 Dm        A                   Dm
To want, love and need her, to help her make it through
A             Dm        A             Dm
As the moment grows old in her gilded cage
