Tears Of The Dragon
by Bruce Dickinson -Standard Tuning-

Intro: Am / C x2

Am C
For too long now, there were secrets in my mind
Am C
For too long now, there were things I should have said
Am C
In the darkness, I was stumbling for the door
Am C
To find a reason, to find the time, the place, the hour
Am Em G D
Waiting for the winter sun and the cold light of day
Am Em
The Mistical to childhood fears
G D
The pressure is building and I can't stay away.

Em C G D
I throw myself into the sea
Em C
Release the wave
G D
Let it wash over me
Em C G D
To face the fear I once believed
Em C G D
The tears of the dragon for you and for me

Am C
Where I was, I had wings that couldn't fly
Am C
Where I was, I had tears I couldn't cry
Am C
My emotions, frozen in an iced lake
Am C
I couldn't feel them until the ice began to break

Am Em G D
I have no power over this, you know I'm afraid
Am Em G
The walls I built are crumbling, the water is moving,
D
I'm slipping away.



Em C G D
I throw myself into the sea
Em C
Release the wave
G D
Let it wash over me
Em C G D
To face the fear I once believed
Em C G D
The tears of the dragon for you and for me

Slowly I awake, slowly I rise

The walls I built are crumbling,

The water is moving,

I'm slipping away.
