[Intro]
| G | Am | G | Am |
| G | Am | G | Am |

[Verse 1]
G Am
There you go swimming deeper into mystery
G Am
Here I remain only seeing where you used to be
G Am
Stared at the ceiling 'til my ears filled up with tears
G Am
Never got to know you and suddenly you're out of here

[Chorus]
C C4 C Em
Gone from mystery into mystery
F G
Gone from daylight into night
Am Am/G F
Another step deeper into darkness
G G6 C G/B
Closer to the light

[Post-Chorus]
| Am Am/G | F | G G6 | C C4 C |

[Verse 2]
G Am
Walked outside, summer moon was nearly down
G Am
Mist on the fields, holy stillness all around
G Am
Death's no stranger, no stranger than the life I've seen
G Am
Still I cried, still I begged to get you back again

[Chorus]
