A
I was the one who had it all
A                      D
I was the master of my fate
Bm      F#m       C#m        F#m
I never needed anybody in my life
D             A         E  
I learned the truth too late
A
I'll never shake away the pain
A                               D
I close my eyes but she's still there
Bm        F#m           C#m        F#m
I let her steal into my melancholy heart
D              A     E
It's more than I can bear

[Chorus]
D                 Bm     A
Now I know she'll never leave me
D                A
Even as she runs away
         D        C#m
She will still torment me
Bm       Dm
Calm me, hurt me
A                  E
Move me, come what may
D                    A
Wasting in my lonely tower
D             Bm   Dm                
Waiting by an open door
F#m                                 A                                      
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in
            E          A     
And be with me for evermore

[Verse]
C
I rage against the trials of love
C                         F
I curse the fading of the light
Dm             Am             Em            Am
Though she's already flown so far beyond my reach
F           C      G
She's never out of sight

[Chorus]
      F                 C
Now I know she'll never leave me
     F                 C
Even as she fades from view
         F        Em
She will still inspire me
Dm   Fm      C            G
Be a part of everything I do
F                    C
Wasting in my lonely tower
F             Dm   Fm    
Waiting by an open door
Am                                  C                                           
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in
C          Em                   Am
And as the long, long nights begin
Am            Em                  C
I'll think of all that might have been
        Am        G   C
Waiting here for evermore
