Em Am C G
[Verse 1]
G Gadd4
Isabel is waiting
C G
In a room of many shadows
Em Am
Her eyes like flashing diamonds
C G
Shining brightly from the sea
G Gadd4
Her hair in silken tresses
C G
Like a robe around her shoulders
Em Am
Hiding tantalising treasures
C G G
That the sun has never seen
[Verse 2]
G Gadd4
Isabel is watching
C G
Like a princess from the mountains
Em Am
For the first soft snows of winter
C G
And the icy winds they bring
G Gadd4
With a whisper of her sadness
C G
In the passing of the summer
Em Am
Her crown is wild red roses
C G
With a lace of forest green
[Chorus]
Bb D G
And she wraps her arms around me and she sighs
Bb D G
And she sing to me in silence with her eyes
Em A D C Bm Bb A A
And her hair upon my pillow comforts me
[Verse 3]
G Gadd4
Isabel is weeping
C G
And her eyes are full of wonder
Em Am
She knows that it's the time for her
C G
And she cannot understand
G Gadd4
She's a mistress of the moonlight
C G
To the stars she is a sister
Em Am
And the morning now awaits her
C G
To betray her once again
[Chorus]
Bb D G
And she whispers as she sadly slips away
Bb D G
Then she smiles because there's nothing left to say
Em A D
And she takes with her the sadness and the sun
