Chords in this song23
capo 3 — sounds 3 semitones higherVerse 1
Once she came in - to my room,
Feathered hat, and all,
Wearing a warm wool shawl...
Wrapped a - round her should - ers,
Two eyes like lights, milky marble whites,
Looking up at me,
Looking for a way, moons in an endless day,
And all I knew was with her then,
No, couldn't see the time,
As we drank down the wine...
To the last ...sweet scar - let
Verse 2
How was I to wonder why,
Or even question this?
Underneath her kiss, I was so ...un - guard - ed,
Every bottle's empty now,
And all those dreams are gone,
Ah, but the song ...carries on ...so ho----ly

Verse 3
She was so much younger then, wild like the wind,
A gypsy with a grin...from an old...far away country,
But deep beneath her curls,
Be - neath this misty pearl,
...There was more to see
Verse 4
She could move mountains in the dark,
As silent as a knife ...she cut loose a life...
That she never, ...never really wanted,
All those days are frozen now,
And all those scars are gone, ah, but the song...
Carries on ...so ho----ly

Verse 5
Come let us drink again ...be - fore the second show,
I want you so to know...
There's no bridge ...be - tween us,
Oh, all those gates have opened now,
And through the light has shone,
Ah, but the song ...carries on ...so ho---ly
