[Intro] C#m  B  E  A

[Primeira Parte]

C#m             B
 Lucidity came slowly
    E                      A
I awoke from dreams of untying a great knot
C#m                   B                          E
 It unraveled like a braid into what seemed were thousands
              A
Of separate strands of fishing line
F#m           B                  E
 Attached to coarse behavior it flowed
          C#m
A calm it urged—what else is here?

[Refrão]

F#m       B                 E
 How’s it feel to be at the center of magic
   C#m
To linger in tones and words?
F#m            B                      E                     C#m
 I opened the floodgates and found no water, no current, no river, no rush
F#m       B                    E
 How’s it feel to stand at the height of your powers
   C#m
To captivate every heart?
F#m              B                        E                       C#m
 Projеcting your visions to strangers who feel it, who listen, who linger on еvery word

F#m B         E   C#m
  Oh it’s a rush!
F#m B         E   C#m
  Oh it’s a rush!

[Ponte]

F#m   B7       A           C#m
 But alone it feels like dying
F#m   B7      A        C#m
 All alone I feel so much
F#m         B7          E               C#m
 I want my offering to woo, to calm, to clear, to solve
F#m           B7             E
 But the only offering that comes
              C#m
It calls, it screams—there’s nothing here!

F#m       B                 E
 How’s it feel to be at the center of magic
   C#m
To linger in tones and words?
F#m            B                      E                     C#m
 I opened the floodgates and found no water, no current, no river, no rush
F#m       B                    E
 How’s it feel to stand at the height of your powers
   C#m
To captivate every heart?
F#m              B                        E                       C#m
 Projеcting your visions to strangers who feel it, who listen, who linger on еvery word

F#m B         E   C#m
  Oh it’s a rush!
F#m B         E   C#m
  Oh it’s a rush!
