[Verse 1]

Bb      Eb/Bb             F/Bb Eb/Bb
I never meant for this to happen
Bb       Eb/Bb              F/Bb Eb/Bb
Ain't it strange how worlds collide
Bb    Eb/Bb          D7    Gm
But I knew that very moment
                  Eb/Bb   Bb       F/Bb
She was something I never would survive
Eb/Bb     Bb          Eb       F
Forces of nature that can't be denied


[Verse 2]

Bb    Eb/Bb               F/Bb Eb/Bb
I had watched her from a distance
Bb     Eb/Bb           F/Bb Eb/Bb
Starry eyes and silver hands
Bb    Eb/Bb               D7    Gm
Never thoughts she'd ever notice
                  Eb/Bb    Bb      F/Bb
Guess I'm blaming magic and circumstance
Eb/Bb        Bb         Eb          F
I'll just surrender and leave it to chance


[Chorus]

Gm         Eb     F
Covered in golden swansdown
Gm          Eb       F     D/F#
Gently, she stole my heart
Bb/D       Eb     F
Covered in golden swansdown
C/E            Eb           F        Bb
She knew I was losing right from the start

[Verse 3]

Bb      Eb/Bb             F/Bb Eb/Bb
I never meant for this to happen
Bb    Eb/Bb               F/Bb Eb/Bb
But I dreamt from time to time
Bb       Eb/Bb         D7    Gm
That I'd find a way to see her
                Eb/Bb           Bb       F/Bb
Just so I could leave all those dreams behind
Eb/Bb   Bb           Eb       F
Duly accepting she'd never be mine


[Chorus 2]

Gm         Eb     F
Covered in golden swansdown
Gm          Eb       F     D/F#
Gently, she stole my heart
Bb/D       Eb     F
Covered in golden swansdown
C/E            Eb           F        Bb
She knew I was losing right from the start

[Bridge]

Gb                       Db/F
There's a light still radiating out of her
Ab                      Eb/G
Although she is sweetly unaware
Gb                       Db/F
As I know I'll never find the proper words
       Eb                        F
I'll embrace the silence that we share

[Chorus 3]

Am         F      G
Covered in golden swansdown
Am          F        G   E/G#
Gently, she stole my heart
C/E        F      G
Covered in golden swansdown
D/F#           F            G        C
She knew I was losing right from the start
