F#       C#m
A lake
                    F#   C#m
A still and ageless lake
                    F#
A dark and depthless lake
           C#m            G#m
You made a splash, it was concentric
           Bm
As you'd expect it

  G#       D#m
A field
                 G#    D#m
A yellow painted field
              G#
Depicted in a dusty book
             D#m            A#m
The mind was weak, the body willing
              C#m
That fact was chilling

[Chorus 1]

Fm           A#
I never knew me, my dear
     Fm          A#
Till I met you I thought I was cool
D#m     G#
It only took seven years
D#m                    G#
And then we were truly in love
Fm         A#
You led me dumb and blind
            Fm                   A#
Through the obstacle course that I call my mind
D#m        G#
And when I reached the end
    D#m           G#
The certificate – it was you

[Verse 2]

  F#    C#m
A fire
                 F#   C#m
A red and raging fire
               F#
A sick satanic pyre
          C#m                G#m
We danced around, victorious Vikings
         Bm
Invoking lightning

  G#    D#m
A force
             G#    D#m
An invisible force
               G#
The terrifying hordes
              D#m             A#m                  C#m
They don't believe that it is sinning when you are winning

[Chorus 2]

Fm           A#
I never knew me, my dear
     Fm          A#
Till I met you I thought I was cool
D#m     G#
It only took seven years
D#m                    G#
And then we were truly in love
Fm         A#
You led me dumb and blind
            Fm                   A#
Through the obstacle course that I call my mind
D#m        G#
And when I reached the end
    D#m           G#
The certificate – it was you
