Bruce Dickinson - Tears Of The Dragon

[ intro ] Am C 2x

Am C
for too long now , there were secrets in my mind
Am C
for too long now , there were things i should have said
Am C
in the darkness , i was stumbling for the door
Am C
to find a reason , to find the time , the place , the hour
Am Em G D
waiting for the winter sun and the cold light of day
Am Em
the mistical to childhood fears
G D
the pressure is building and i can’t stay away .

Em C G D
i throw myself into the sea
Em C
release the wave
G D
let it wash over me
Em C G D
to face the fear i once believed
Em C G D
the tears of the dragon for you and for me

Am C
where i was , i had wings that couldn’t fly
Am C
where i was , i had tears i couldn’t cry
Am C
my emotions , frozen in an iced lake
Am C
i couldn’t feel them until the ice began to break

Am Em G D
i have no power over this , you know i’m afraid
Am Em G
the walls i built are crumbling , the water is moving ,
D
i’m slipping away .

Em C G D
i throw myself into the sea
Em C
release the wave
G D
let it wash over me
Em C G D
to face the fear i once believed
Em C G D
the tears of the dragon for you and for me

( solo )

Am Em G D
slowly i awake , slowly i rise
Am Em
the walls i built are crumbling ,
G
the water is moving ,
D
i’m slipping away .

Em C G D
i throw myself into the sea
Em C
release the wave
G D
let it wash over me
Em C G D
to face the fear i once believed
Em C G D
the tears of the dragon for you and for me

Em C G D
i throw myself into the sea
Em C
release the wave
G D
let it wash over me
Em C G D
to face the fear i once believed
Em C G D
the tears of the dragon for you and for me
