We live a dying dream
If you know what I mean

I cried the rain that fills the ocean wide

great tab, 10/10!

Awesome tab. Chords are spot on. One change... "catch the WHEEL that breaks the butterfly" rather than "wind." It's from an Alexander Pope poem called "Epistle to Dr Arbuthnot." Noel is well read.
