Spellbound

[Intro] |        |     |        |     | [Verse 1] Windy day in Honolulu Looking out beyond the hills Memories and times of heartache Leis of lilies daffodils Asus2  Here I lighted like a bird  F#madd11 Upon the bright blue water’s shore Asus2  With my hope and with my nightmares Bsus4  Praying I could swim and soar Asus2 Dark dreams haunted sunlit days While I drank down rum and hope Asus2  Burning dreams and crimson lovers Bsus4              Asus2  Dancing on a thin tightrope  C#m7        Asus2       Bsus4 Spellbound spellbound spellbound [Verse 2] Birds of paradise were walking As though they were angels’ songs Bright wings flew along the beaches In their shimmering sarongs Asus2  And I thought when I would see them F#madd11 So content and so serene Asus2  How could I find that surrender? Bsus4 I could fly but I would scream Asus2  Fighting out of beauty’s trance In the light of sand and water Asus2  Knowing I would crawl the highways Bsus4                    Asus2  Finding my own kind of slaughter  C#m7        Asus2       Bsus4 Spellbound spellbound spellbound [Instrumental] | Asus2   | F#madd11 | Asus2   | Bsus4   | [Verse 3] How I longed to sing the day Doing what I saw you do How you lived and danced in light Yearning to know what life knew Asus2  Whittled down the drinking gone F#madd11  To whimper towards the sight of land Asus2  Hungering to sail in water Bsus4 Bright with promise deep in sand Asus2 In these islands once I wept For the lost and for the found Asus2  Surfacing in air and light Bsus4                Asus2 Now I live and I am spellbound  C#m7        Asus2       Bsus4 Spellbound spellbound spellbound [Outro] Spellbound spellbound spellbound spellbound
