Lyrics:
B C#m G#m E
Far away, this ship is taking me far away
B C#m
Far away from the memories
G#m E
Of the people who care if I live or die
B C#m G#m E
Starlight, I will be chasing a starlight
B C#m
Until the end of my life
G#m E
I don't know if it's worth it anymore
B C#m G#m E
Hold you in my arms
B C#m G#m E
I just wanted to hold you in my arms
B C#m G#m E
My life, you electrify my life
B C#m
Let's conspire to ignite
G#m E
All the souls that will die just to feel your life
C#m F#m Eb
I'll never let you go
G#m
If you promise not to
A E
Fade away
A Eb
Never fade away
G#m Eb E B A#m6
Our hopes and expectations
G#m Eb E B A#m6
Black Holes and Revelations
