       A  
In an ice-capped fire  
    Am   
Of burning wood  
        Am   
In our world of wire   
   E                   A  
Ignite our dreams of starry skies  
     Am   
And you and me  
    Am           E   
As realised our bigger themes   

     Dm        Am  
Oh, take me internally  
   Dm    Dm/G   
Forever yours  
    Am   
Nocturnal me

Oh, take me internally

Forever yours

A  
Do or die   
        Am  
What's done is done   
      Am  
True beauty lies   
         E     
On the blue horizon   

 A  
Who or why   
        Am  
What's one is one   
    Am  
In pure disguise   
    E    
Of vulgar sons   

     Dm        Am  
Oh, take me internally  
   Dm    Dm/G   
Forever yours  
    Am   
Nocturnal me

Oh, take me internally

    Dm                Am  
Whatever burns burns eternally  
    Dm                Am   
So take me in turns internally   
      Dm  
When I'm on fire  
    Am   
My body will be  
   Dm    Dm/G  
Forever yours   
    Am  
Nocturnal me

Of burning wood  
        Am   
In our world of wire   
   E                   A  
Ignite our dreams of starry skies  
     Am   
And you and me  
    Am           E    
As realised our bigger themes

Oh, take me internally

Oh, take me internally

Forever yours
