Capo on 2nd fret
               
 
 
C                           Em 
A song for the baby in your womb 
 
C                           Em 
A song for your body in the tomb 
 
Am                          Dm  
A song for the dreams woven in your room 
 
C 
Come true soon 
 
C                         Em 
Never let you come to any harm 
 
C                              Em 
Never take my future from your arms 
 
Am                     Dm  
I'll never let what we have turn bad 
 
       C 
Or let you be sad 
 
F                      Em 
Sometimes I dream that we die young 
 
      F                    Em 
Spend eternity beneath the summer sun 
 
F                 Am 
Spend the summers barefoot 
 
    Dm  C   F   G   C 
And fly a - way for good 
 
C   Em 
 
    C                            Em 
The moonlight is playing with my heart 
 
C                              Em 
Hopes and dreams are streaming upwards 
 
    Am                  Dm  
The ephemeral beauty of transient days 
 
C 
We'll fly away 
 
F                      Em 
Sometimes I dream that we die young 
 
      F                    Em 
Spend eternity beneath the summer sun 
 
F                 Am 
Spend the summers barefoot 
 
    Dm  C   F   G   C 
And fly a - way for good
