Avantasia - Farewell

tuning ( lowest to highest ) : D# G# C# F# A# D#

gabriel :
Am F Dm G
days have come , winters have gone ,
Am F Am
and we gambled like siblings in paradise .
Am F Dm G
i was your knight , holding you tight
Am F Am
as a brother when i saw your crying eyes .
G C E Am
time went by and we had to say goodbye .
D Am
staring up to the clouds above
D Am
children – so little and sad .
E Am G C
hoping the saints could help one day
E C
lead us together again .
Am G F D
holding the key to the alley of dreams
E
still in hands .

C G
time telling me to say farewell
Am
but i knew that i would fight hell
F C G
and i know : we will
C G
go for another time we can sing ,
F
for another time we’ll be free ,
E Am
for no more farewell .

anna :

stepbrother tell me where have you been
when they brought me to this
godforsaken place .
sign of the cross – they took me away
for healing with herbs by the way of grace .
now i wait for the day to feed the flames .

gabriel :
i have been caught in a cage of despair .
my heart as a monk’s cell so empty and bare .
but no holy water
can make me
forget you again . . .

time telling me to say farewell
but i knew that i would fight hell
and i knew : we will
go for another time we can see ,
for another time we’ll be free ,
for no more farewell .

lugaid :
no farewell could be the last one .
if you long to meet again . . .
