CAPO 3rd FRET

(Original Key: G)


Intro:

Em

Verse 1:

Em
I've come across the desert,
To greet you with a smile,
Am
My camel looks so tired,
It's hardly worth my while.
Em
To tell you of my travels,
Across the golden East,
Am
I see your preparations
Em
Invite me first, to feast.

Chorus 1:

C7 B7 Em
Take me I'm yours,
C7
Because dreams,
B7 Em
Are made of this.
B7
For-ever there'll be,
Em
A heaven in your kiss.

Interlude:

Em

Verse 2:

Em
A-musing belly dancers,
Distract me from my wine,
Am
A-cross Tibetian mountains,
Are memories of mine.
Em
I've stood some ghostly moments,
With natives in the hills,
Am
Re-corded here on paper,
My chills and thrills,
Em
And spills.

Chorus 2:

C7 B7 Em
Take me I'm yours,
C7
Because dreams,
B7 Em
Are made of this.
B7
For-ever there'll be,
Em
A heaven in your kiss.

Solo:

Em

Verse 3:

Em
It's really been some welcome,
You never seem to change,
Am
A grape to tempt your leisure,
Romantic gestures strange.
Em
My eagle flies tomorrow,
It's a game I treasure dear,
Am
To seek the helpless future,
Em
My love at last; I'm here.

Chorus 3:

C7 B7 Em
Take me I'm yours,
C7
Because dreams,
B7 Em
Are made of this.
B7
For-ever there'll be,
Em
A heaven in your kiss.

Outro:

Em
