Dead To The World

C                    F
Dead to the world my body was sleeping’
C                 F
On my mind was nothin’ at all
C               F
Come a mist, an air so appealing
C                          F                 C        F
I’m here a whisperin', you summoned, I called

C                            F
I formed me a presence whose aspect was changing’
C                            F
Oh, he would shift, he would not shift at all
C                          F
We sat for a while, he was very engaging’
C                           F              C         F
And when he was gone, I was gone on a smile

       Dm
With a strange way of walking’
      F
And a strange way of breathing’
     Dm                    F
More lives than a cat that led me astray
Dm                         F
All in all, he captured my heart
C           Dm          F             C
Dead to the world and I just slipped away

C                        F
I heard me a music that drew me to dancing’
C            F
Lo, I turned under his spell
C                        F
I opened my coat but he never came closer
C                     F                 C         F
I bolted the door and whispered, oh well

       Dm
With a strange way of walking’
       F
And a strange way of breathing’
      Dm                    F
More lives than a cat that led me astray
Dm                         F
All in all, he captured my heart
C           Dm        F            C
Dead to the world and just slipped away

  C  F x 5

C                         F
I laid in the rushes, the air was upon me
C                    F
Wondering’, well, I just couldn't discern
C                       F
Will he come back, come back to me?
C                        F           C         F
Oh, I whispered will you ever return?

C                            F
I was feeling’ sensations in no dictionary
C                             F
He was less than a breath of shimmer and smoke
C                          F
The life in his fingers unwound my existence
C                  F           C         F
Dead to the world alive I awoke

       Dm
With a strange way of walking’
       F
And a strange way of breathing’
      Dm               F
Less than a breath of shimmer and smoke
Dm                         F
The life in his fingers unwound my existence
C            Dm      F      C
Dead to the world alive I awoke

C        F
Alive I awoke
G Am

G         Am
(Alive I awoke)

C        F
Alive, alive, oh
