[Verse 1]
Em
Forget me not - those eyes of blue
C G Em C
Was it real? I never had a clue
Em D Em
Quite pristine
D Em C
So many sights unseen
Em D G Em C
Defenseless dumb and grim?
[Chorus]
Em A Em
I didn't know what I was looking for
A Em A
But she knew What I'd never known before
Em
She seemed so settled and so confident
D Em
And I was lured by that scent
A
Yet I was ready when she looked at me
Em
Let it come, let it be

[Verse 2]
Em
Moonlit pale like barley fields
C G Em C
Teenage pulse - deranged strange dreams
Em A Em
Oh I felt born a...new
D Em
That nerve tattoo
D Em C
She freed me and I flew
[Chorus]
Em
Without a mask and lost in greedy lips
A Em A
And I knew she was innocent
Em A
She told me that she dreamed just like I did
Em D Em A
When we ran from that cliff
Em A
the head was open and smiled down at me
Em
Let it come, let it be
[Bridge]
C Em A
The deepest sense of wonder
Em G
The greatest mystery
Em A
Illusions ripped asunder
Em G Em
The greatest victory
[Solo]

Em G Em G
Starry night
Em G Em G
Moon shine bright
Em G
Barleycorn
Em G
Moves to still
Em D Em G
Starry night
Em D Em G
Moon shine bright
Em G
Brown sets low
C Em
In the barleycorn
[Outro]
A
Yes I was ready when she looked that way
Em G
I was going there anyway
Em A
To an eternal war and borne away
Em G
She just read off the lips
Em A
The head was up and smiled down on me
Em
Let it come, let it be.
