  			G	        C   G	Em	          C     G 
Is it a kind of dream, floating out on the tide 
D	       D7 	G	  C	     Am	       D    D7 
following the river of death downstream, oh is it a dream 
	G	       C	G 
there's a fog along the hori-zon 
   Em	               C    G 
a strange glow in the sky 
    D	   D7	         G	  C 
and nobody seems to know where you go 
	         B	Cdim	G D7	G 
and what does it mean, oh     oh is it a dream 
 
	Bm	C	     D7	        Bm 
Bright eyes   burning like fire, bright eyes 
C	             Am 
how can you close and fail 
Em	              D7	G 
how can the light that burned so brightly 
C	         Am	D7	G 
suddenly burn so pale,  bright eyes 
 
Is it a kind of shadow, reaching into the night 
wandering over the hills unseen, or is it a dream 
there's a high wind in the trees, a cold sound in the air 
and nobody ever knows when you go 
and where do you start, oh oh into the dark 
 
Bright eyes burning like fire, bright eyes 
how can you close and fail, how can the light that burned so brightly 
suddenly burn so pale, bright eyes
