The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

F F/A F/D F/Bb F F/Bb Csus4 F/D F/Bb Csus4

[Verse 1]

F
For too long now I've been
               Am
Adrift in this ocean that washed over me
   Eb                     F           Dm
Diluting the secrets that you had to keep
          Eb
From the world that's been...

F
...Spinning around you
            Bb/F
With and without you sedating, unkind
             Gm
Show you the way, deliver and faint!
           Csus4      C
Relish to stand in line!
Dm
Oh

[Pre-Chorus 1]

F                   C/E
I guess you'll find no one to blame
       Eb                      Dm
We're tied to the rules of someone else's game

                       C
Try to fly, flap your wings
                    Bb
As you look to the night sky
                     Csus4  C
A gilded cage in the twilight

[Chorus]

                Fm
You dance on a wire
        Cm           Bbsus4        Bb
See the piper at the gates of dawn
                   Fm
Been caught in the mire
           Cm               Db       Bbsus4
Now you're reaching for the stars oh oh

Csus4         Fm
dance on the wire
       Eb/G                  Absus4 Ab
To the breeze that carries change
   Db            Fm            Eb
Tonight you will see the Great Pan in the stars
    Bb/D           Db                   Dbmaj7
The piper at the gates of dawn you'll hear

[Interlude]

F       G   F/Bb F
Ooh ooh ooh oh  uoohh

[Verse 2]

F
For quite a while I have been
               Am
The one that I thought I was happy to be
Eb                       F         Dm
Masquerade, at least a shadow play
          Eb
No one's gonna see...

F
...behind the fascade, those rallying calls
Bb/F
You're afraid to awake
            Gm
Look at the sky, you can't defy
                 Csus4   C
The dark that is calling your name
Dm
Oh

[Pre-Chorus 2]

F                   C/E
You're blind by the beauty around
       Eb                            Dm
You're numb by the touch and you're deaf to the sound

                        C
Of the sweet-smelling bright
                Bb
melody of the moonlight
                              C
That devours the bars in the twilight

[Chorus]

                Fm
You dance on a wire
        Cm           Bbsus4        Bb
See the piper at the gates of dawn
                   Fm
Been caught in the mire
           Cm               Db       Bbsus4
Now you're reaching for the stars oh oh

Csus4         Fm
dance on the wire
       Eb/G                  Absus4 Ab
To the breeze that carries change
   Db            Fm            Eb
Tonight you will see the Great Pan in the stars
    Bb/D           Db                   Dbmaj7
The piper at the gates of dawn you'll hear

[Bridge 1]

Eb             Fm                            Dbsus2
Now open your eyes, ain't it what you've been wanting
Eb          Fm                Dbsus2
Too much to fathom, until it unfolds
Eb                 Fm                       Dbsus2
Endure what you're in for, you're meant to be longing
Eb          Fm                      Dbsus2
King of the wave, now keep flailing about

Eb                    Fm                Dbsus2
We're the dream the inhabits the waking old world
Eb                        Fm                       Dbsus2
We're right here, we're the doorway to guide you across
Eb              Fm                            Dbsus2
Exposed to the spirits that you're meant to be citing
Eb             Fm                     Dbsus2
Misfit and misplaced, you'll never belong

[Bridge 2]

Eb                          Fm                    Dbsus2
We're the breath you don't catch, we're the great expectations
Eb                    Fm                Dbsus2
You ain't measured up to on the beautiful side
Eb                    Fm                 Dbsus2
We're the promise not kept - bred in desolation
Eb                    Fm                       Dbsus2
We're the will of the wisp - demerged from the light

Eb             Fm           Dbsus2
Get me out of here, take me away
Eb             Fm           Dbsus2
Take me, take me, take me away
