Withstood the suitors quiet seas

I can't go on taking roses from your grave 
          Bm7           D/A
To linger on beyond the beyond 
                  Bm7 
Where the willows weep

And the nightmare rides on

What I  fear is lost    here 
D/G  Dsus2     D/G Dsus2 
The wind blows and I       know 

Fig1 
All you have to do 
Is run away and steal yourself from me 
Become a mystery to gaze into 
You're so cruel in all you do 
But still I believe I believe
