A Beginning

Cm

[Verse 1]
Cm                            
The silence dominates, divining 
                      F#7
resolutions from my hands
F                  Cm
Lines drawn in the sand
Cm                                
But my volition's wry, my 
temperance twisted, faced with 
F#7
failing light
F              Cm
Nothing in my sight

[Chorus 1]
     C#     G#     C#            
If I fall into the ocean, send my
C#      G#     C#
 soul into the sea
              Cm               C# 
Will these reflections trouble me?
        C7             Fm
 Will I dream my final dream?

  I sensed this silhouette who's 
                              F#7
standing vigil growing very sore
F               Cm
Just one moment more
Cm                             
Before I close the curtain, fate 
                           F#7
uncertain; spirit to the dark
F           Cm
Endlessly apart

[Chorus 2]
      C#     G#     C#           
Can I fall into the ocean, send 
C#       G#      C#
my soul into the sea?
           Cm              C#     
No distant echoes haunting me, no 
        Cm             C#
further phantoms will I see
             C7          Fm
This silence held eternally

[Bridge]
    G#                     Bb     
But what if the silence is broken 
       Eb              G#
by the ones you've loved
                           Bb      
Incredibly present, with a heavenly
           Eb       G#
 breath to wake you up
                        Bb    
With nothing left to poison, a 
               Eb        G#
portrait of who I've become
                      Bb           
Only elation remains, protecting us
           Fm          Eb    Bbm7 
 from this neverending night
 Fm7


[The Moon reprise]
Eb Bbm7 Fm7 (x2)

Eb
Dear apparition, while my senses 
last
Bbm7
Is absolution far too much to ask?
Fm7
  Will you forgive a truly troubled 
past?
    G#                             
The silver lining still remains, 
  Cm
the sights I've left to see
   B7
So trust that with this end, a new 
beginning's waiting patiently
