[Chords] [Breaks + Outro]
D6sus2 = xx0x57 A/D = x-x-0-x-9-10 D = x5777x
D6sus4 = xx00x5 D* = xx0x32 A/D = x5765x
Dmaj11 = xx0x79 A = 57765x G/D = x5543x
Dsus2* = x-x-0-x-x-12 Amaj7 = 57665x E = x79997
D6 = xx0x77 A7 = 57565x B = 79987x
Dsus4* = xx0x53 (Dsus4sus2) A6 = 5x465x A = 577655
Dsus2 = xx0230 Bsus4 = 779977 F#m = 244222
D = xx0x75 B7 = 797877 G = 355433
D6sus4* = xx0x87 Dmaj9/F# = 200220
Note: This one is surprisingly complex. The tab in the intro can also be used for the verse. Other versions
don't specify this, but the chord sequence does change in the first verse; you can still use the same rhythms.
I'm also not entirely sure about the Dmaj9/F# at the end, but I tried to capture that dissonance. Let me know
if you have better ideas.

[Verse 1]
D6sus2 D Dmaj11 Dsus2*
The way the sunlight flits across your skirt
D6sus2 D Dmaj11 D6 Dsus4*
Makes me feel I'm from another world
D6sus2 D Dmaj11 Dsus2*
To touch your face in the morning light
D6sus2 D Dmaj11 Dsus2
I hope you're always gonna be around
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
The times I struggle to understand why
D6sus4* D A/D D6 Dsus4*
The ancient proverbs like who am I?
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
Why am I here, and what have I done?
D6sus4* D D*
I see the answer's place my trust in you
[Chorus]
A Amaj7
Trust in you, love, be with me there
A7 A6 Bsus4 B7
That's when I want you, that's when I need you the most
[Verse 2]
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
I want us to be like Peter Pan,
D6sus4* D A/D D6 Dsus4*
But dreams, it seems, are weightless as sand
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
And man supposedly is made of sand
D6sus4* D D*
It seems that man cannot survive at all
[Chorus]
A Amaj7
Let's disappear, love, let's fly away
A7 A6 Bsus4 B7
Into the demi-monde, into the twilight zone
[Break 1]
D A/D G/D A/D x2
D A/D G/D A/D
Ooooh x2
[Verse 3]
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
The times inside I spent screaming at you
D6sus4* D A/D D6 Dsus4*
Release me, please, from this mortal jail
D6sus4* D A/D Dsus2*
One shrug or smile can determine my fate
D6sus4* D Dsus2
I'm lost for days and have myself to blame
[Intstrumental Chorus]

Something I'm giving

Said is yours for the taking
E B A B
Something like sunlight

Love is a spotlight

Love is all sorrow

Still I'll meet you tomorrow
