[Intro]
G Em G

[Verse]
C G
Last night I dreamt you very near
D Em
Though the night was dark beyond the glass
Em
I knew you'd left before I awoke
D G
But you'd fogged the window when you passed

[Verse]
C G
The air was still and smelled like rain
D Em
Though I'd never known so dry a spell
Em
And what I heard there in the dark
D G
Are the secrets I will never tell

[Chorus]
C G D G
There is a tree beyond this world
C G D
In it's ancient roots, a song is curled
C G D Em
I am the fool whose life's been spent
D G
Between what's said and what is meant

[Instrumental]
G Em G

[Verse]
C G
I didn't mean what went so wrong
D Em
Some things I wish I didn't know
Em
I've always lived inside my head
D G
And often utterly alone

[Verse]
C G
I'll be a pillow for your head
D Em
You can make me promises you can't keep
Em
And I'll believe each word you say
D G
And I'll hum to you while you sleep

[Chorus]
C G D G
There is a tree beyond this world
C G D
In it's ancient roots, a song is curled
C G D Em
I am the fool whose life's been spent
