               Verse 1:
 
F#                        Ab 
The witching hour was the hour that I came to you 
F#                             Ab 
I needed something to ease the pain 
F#                                           
You took the palm of my hand 
Ab 
Studied it and said to me 
F#                                Ab 
It won't be long now until you're free 
 
 
          Fm 
And I saw stars 
A#m 
Above 
      F#               Ab            Db 
And I saw the star that you turned into 
            Fm 
You took my heart 
     A#m 
With you 
     F#          Ab              F# 
Only particles of dust lay in my chest 
 
 Verse 1:
F#                 Ab 
As if by magic you illuminated all the skies 
F#                        Ab 
An effervescent glow shone all around 
F# 
And even though you're gone 
   Ab 
I know for me you'll always live 
F#                                Ab 
I won't forget you and all you've done 
For me 
 
 
       Fm 
I saw stars 
A#m 
Above 
      F#                Ab           Db 
And I saw the star that you turned into 
             Fm 
You took my heart 
     A#m 
With you 
     F#           Ab                Db 
Only particles of dust lay in my chest 
 
 
Outro 
     F#           Ab                Db 
So the life we had must now laid down to rest 
     F#           Ab                Db 
You will always own a percentage of my heart 
     F#           Ab 
Even though in human form 
        Db 
We are apart
