Sweet Scarlet

 D                C/D        
Once she came in - to my room, 
      Em                  A    
feathered hat, and all,
Asus2 A

  Em                  A           
Wearing a warm wool shawl wrapped 
      D         A       D
a - round her should - ers,
Em              A     Asus2 A   
Two eyes like lights,          
Em                  A            
milky marble whites,   looking up at
Bm7
 me,
 Em                A   Asus2 
Looking for a way,              
A   Em                  A
moons in an endless day,
     D             C/D            
And all I knew was with her then, 
      Em                  A   
no, couldn't see the time,
Asus2 A

       Em                  A      
As we drank down the wine... to 
       D         A      D
the last... sweet scar - let!


 E            D/E           F#m  
How was I to wonder why, or even 
                 B
question this?
  F#m           B          E     
Underneath her kiss, I was so un 
    D     E
- guard - ed,
  A            Bsus4  B        E
Every bottle's empty now, and 
                   C#m
all those dreams are gone,
F#m               B          Em  
 Ah, but the song... carries on 
  A7     D   C/D
so ho----ly!

 D               C/D           Em
She was so much younger then, 
             A     Asus2  A
wild like the wind,

   Em                A         
A gypsy with a grin,     from an 
       D             A       D
old... far away country,
     Em                A       
But deep beneath her curls, be - 
   Em                    A        
neath this misty pearl,  there was
   Bm7
 more to see,
 E                      D/E   
She could move mountains in the 
            F#m               B
dark, as silent as a knife,
    F#m               B        
She cut loose a life... that she 
         E               D      E
never,   never really wanted,
 A                 Bsus4   B     
All those days are frozen now, 
   E                  C#m
and all those scars are gone,
F#m                B              
 Ah, but the song...  carries

I want you so to know,     there's

 no bridge be - tween us,

and through the light has shone,
