The Crystal Ship


Before you slip into unconsciousness
 1 -1   2   -2  4 4  -2  -1*  4   4

I'd like to have another kiss
-1*  4  -3*  3*  -2 3* 3* -2

Another flashing chance at bliss
-2 -2 -2  3* -3*   4    4    4

Another kiss,   another kiss
-2 3* -3* -2   4 4 -3* 3* 3* -2


The days are bright and filled with pain
 2   -2   4     4   -2   -1*    4    4

Enclose me in your gentle rain
 4   4 -3*  3* -2   3* 3*  -2

The time you ran was too insane
 -2  -2   -2  3* -3*  4   4  4

We'll meet again,    we'll meet again
  -2   3*  -3* -2      4  4 -3* 3* 3* -2



Oh, tell me where your freedom lies
 2   -2   4   4    -2   4  -3*  3*

The streets are fields that never die
-2     3*   -2    -2     3  3* 3*  -2

Deliver me from reasons why
-2 -2 -2 3* -3*  4   4   4

You'd rather cry,   I'd rather fly
  -2  3* -3* -2      4  4 -3* 3* 3* -2


The crystal ship is being filled
 -6  -6   5   5  -5* -5* 5  -3*

A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
-5* 5*  5   -3*   4   4  -3*   3*

A million ways to spend your time
-2* -2 -2  3*  -3*   4   4    4

When we get back,   I'll drop a line
 -2  -5* -5   5    -5* 5 -5* -5 -5 5
