China Waltz

F#m Bm E C#

[Verse 1]
A                 Bm                    F#m
Silver falls like painted dolls they sit
Bm            E       A
Their endless days now done
   D                    A          Dm
In fields of fire their hearts retire
F#m               E
Dancing the China Waltz

[Verse 2]
A                   Bm                 F#m
Their younger years touched by thoughts
Bm             E     A
Their time has surely come
     D              A        Dm
With all their cares thrown away
   F#m              E
On love of a secret Waltz

[Chorus]
F#m                Bm
Dance me the China Waltz
E               A    C#
Under the Easter moon
F#m                       Bm
They move in silence their bodies rise and fall
E               A                 C#
Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn

[Verse 3]
A               Bm                   F#m
The hard release steals the peaceful dream
     Bm         E      A
Then takes your breath away
    D          A              Dm
But here behind where love is blind
    F#m                E
The sound of the China Waltz

[Chorus]
F#m                Bm
Dance me the China Waltz
E               A    C#
Under the Easter moon
F#m                       Bm
They move in silence their bodies rise and fall
E               A                 C#
Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn

F#m Bm E C#

[Chorus]
F#m                Bm
Dance me the China Waltz
E               A    C#
Under the Easter moon
F#m                       Bm
They move in silence their bodies rise and fall
E               A                 C#
Overtaken in the breaking light of dawn

[Outro]
F#m                Bm
Dance me the China Waltz
E               F#m
Under the Easter moon
