Lyrics (with chord prompt above)
[Verse 1]
Bm
There's an old tale wrought with the mystery of Tom
Asus2
the poet and his muse
F#m G
and a magic lake which gave a life
A F#m
to the words the poet used
[Segway Riff]
Bm
Now the muse she was his happiness
Asus2
and he rhymed about her grace
F#m G
And told her stories of treasures deep
A F#m
Beneath the blackened waves
[Segway Riff]
Bm
'Till in the stillness of one dawn
Asus2
still in its mystic crown
F#m G
the muse she went down to the lake
A F#m Bm
and in the waves she drowned
[Chorus]
G A
And now to see your love set free
Bm E
You will need the witch's cabin key
Em7 F#m
Find the lady of the light gone mad with the night
G A
That's how you reshape destiny
[Segway Riff]
Bm
The poet came down to the lake
Asus2
to call out to his dear
F#m G
when there was no answer
A F#m
he was overcome with fear
[Segway Riff]
Bm
He searched in vain for his treasure lost
Asus2
and too soon the night would fall
F#m G
and only his own echo
A F#m
would wail back as his call
[Segway Riff]
Bm
And when he swore to bring back his love
Asus2
by the stories he'd create
F#m G
nightmares shifted in their sleep
A F#m Bm
in the darkness of the lake
[Chorus]
G A
And now to see your love set free
Bm E
You will need the witch's cabin key
Em7 F#m
Find the lady of the light still ravin' in the night
G A
That's how you reshape destiny
[Segway Riff]
Bm
In the dead of night she came to him
Asus2
with darkness in her eyes
F#m G
wearing a mourning gown
A F Bm
sweet words as her disguise
Bm
He took her in without a word
Asus2
for he saw his grave mistake
F#m G
and vowed them both to silence
A F#m Bm
deep beneath the lake
Bm
Now if its real or just a dream
Asus2
one mystery remains
F#m G
for it is said on moonless nights
A F#m Bm (let ring)
they may still haunt this place

And now to see your love set free

And now to see your love set free

That's how you reshape destiny.
