Mystified Heavy Tab

MYSTIFIED, HEAVY…………SAM ROBERTS
                        
Ooh, it's got me mystified, heavy now

Deep down to my soul
                      
You try to keep the wheel steady now

Easy as she goes
                                             
I can hear on the wind a tale that needs to be told again
                                                     
The horizon bends at either end and the sea can't tell a foe from a friend (after this 
4 single strums of Amin)

                         ..(ride on)
I      know it was only a dream
                                
,    X2
As     delicate as a dragonfly wing

                             
I was never satisfied with any life 'til she called my name
                                    
The air on the high ground was rarefied, every day the same
                                                  
And old fears were always near but when we set sail they disappeared
                                      
There are those who fear the deep but the world don't wait when your faith
       
won't leap

And   I know it was only a dream

As    delicate as a dragonfly wing

                 /                    
        
Then we watched as the Southern Cross led the sailors home, constellation

borne
             /            /   
         
We set sail in a heavy gale and to the sea many of us thrown
                         /               
            
And there were times when my courage failed but I never bowed to the storm
              /                 
          ........
Whatever path you choose to walk, in the end, you walk alone

Ooh, it's got me mystified heavy now

Tongue-tied to the anchor chain
                      
You try to keep your hand steady now
        
But it slips again
                                                         
And landfall surprised us all and she broke on the rocks like a china doll
                                                         
    
You can hear the siren call for the last dance at Poseidon's Ball

                             
I      know it was only a dream
                     
As     delicate a dragonfly wing
                      
I      hope it was only a dream
                          
As     delicate as a dragonfly wing
