      Cm          G                Gb                D
The return of the Thin White Duke, throwing darts in lovers' eyes
 
[Verse 1]
Am                               F                  G                      Am  F  G
Here are we, one magical moment, such is the stuff from where dreams are woven
Am                                 F             G                         Am  F  G
Bending sound, dredging the ocean, lost in my circle
Am                                 F                      G                Am  F  G
Here am  I,  flashing  no  colour  tall  in  this  room  overlooking  the  ocean
Am                                     F           G                       Am  F  G
Here are we, one magical movement from Kether to Malkuth
Am                                     F           G                       Am  F  G
There are you, drive like a demon from station to station

[Pre-Chorus]
G
Once there were mountains on mountains
                    Bm                        D            A        G
and once there were sunbirds to soar with and once I could never be down
G
Got to keep searching and searching
              Bm                 D            A            G
Oh, what will I be believing and who will connect me with love?

Wonderful, wonderful, wonder when
G                F#m       F          C D E A E F#m
Have you sought fortune, evasive and shy?
G            F#m        F             C D E A E F#m
Drink to the men who protect you and I
G             F#m               F                 C D E A E F#m G
Drink, drink, drain your glass, raise your glass high

Another lyric error... it's "Making sure white stains", not "Making sure white stays".

Couple of errors I noticed: On the end of "Drink drink, drain your glass" section, the last chords CDEAEF#m are missing a G right at the end. The other one is in the lyrrics. It's "European Canon", not cannon. Canon, as in an ideal, perfect example, not as a big iron gun.
