  			D                         G                          D
You took me here from far,  up to the highest star
                          A                          D
you took your heart away,   no one else can ever see
                    G                        D
and if i gave away,   what I'm dying to say
                              A                           Am
I couldn't give you more than this, I was born and it was bliss
         A                     C
I'd have died for friends like this
  Am               C
disolve a thousand tears
         D               D     Am C Am
and your kiss was almost gold

D A C A G D

D                                 G                          D
you took me near you took me far,  up to the highest highest star
                               A                        D
your giving back the exchange,   we got something going on
                        G
and if i ever fell from grace
                        D
with every living human face
                             A     Am
well i throw the whole thing down
                     A
and i take to higher ground
       Am          C        A
cast a spell on my surround
                        G
time to think on what i found
               D    A C A
this is almost gold
