Spellbound
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:F#
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
| E | C#m7 | E | C#m7 |
[Verse 1]
E
Windy day in Honolulu
C#m7
Looking out beyond the hills
E
Memories and times of heartache
C#m7
Leis of lilies, daffodils
Asus2
Here I lighted like a bird
F#madd11
Upon the bright blue water's shore
Asus2
With my hope and with my nightmares
Bsus4
Praying I could swim and soar
Asus2
Dark dreams, haunted sunlit days
C#m7
While I drank down rum and hope
Asus2
Burning dreams and crimson lovers
Bsus4 Asus2
Dancing on a thin tightrope
C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4
Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound
[Verse 2]
E
Birds of paradise were walking
C#m7
As though they were angels’ songs
E
Bright wings flew along the beaches
C#m7
In their shimmering sarongs
Asus2
And I thought when I would see them
F#madd11
So content and so serene
Asus2
How could I find that surrender?
Bsus4
I could fly but I would scream
Asus2
Fighting out of beauty's trance
C#m7
In the light of sand and water
Asus2
Knowing I would crawl the highways
Bsus4 Asus2
Finding my own kind of slaughter
C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4
Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound
[Instrumental]
| E | C#m7 | E | C#m7 |
| Asus2 | F#madd11 | Asus2 | Bsus4 |
[Verse 3]
E
How I longed to sing the day
C#m7
Doing what I saw you do
E
How you lived and danced in light
C#m7
Yearning to know what life knew
Asus2
Whittled down, the drinking gone
F#madd11
To whimper towards the sight of land
Asus2
Hungering to sail in water
Bsus4
Bright with promise, deep in sand
Asus2
In these islands once I wept
C#m7
For the lost and for the found
Asus2
Surfacing in air and light
Bsus4 Asus2
Now I live, and I am spellbound
C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4
Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound
[Outro]
