Stratovarius - If the story is over

^DmOnce upon a time I^Dsus2 was the scribe of a^Dsus4ll my dream^Dms A# A#addE Gm Am7 I’ve seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me ^DmI’ve walked the sh^Dsus2ores of Avalon, I’ve^Dsus4 seen the s^Dmeasons change A# A#addE Gm Am7 I’ve laughed and cried, I’ve lived and died, but only on the page

All I ever was is ^Dsus2here, on the page It’s all the same, it never mattered anyw^A#ay It’s all a lie so let it ^Fburn ^C

^DmAll empty wo^A#rds and al^Aml rhymes will f^A#ade ^DmAs the light of ^A#last candle ^Fflickers a^Cway ^DmIf the story is ^A#over, this ch^Fapter my ^Clast ^A#Let it be my best one, l^Gmet it be my ^Dmown

^DmI hope It’s not to^Dsus2o late to learn to li^Dsus4ve and learn to lov^Dme A# A#addE Gm Am7 I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark ^DmFor I never drew t^Dsus2he sword from stone, the^Dsus4re’s no Helen in my T^Dmroy A# A#addE Gm Am7 I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void

Test my faith and test my ^Dsus2heart, torn apart Make me strong, make me whole again and ^A#Guide through the dark ‘til the mornin^Fg com^Ce

^EmAll empty^C words an^Hmd all rhymes w^Cill fade As the l^Emight of last ^Ccandle ^Gflickers ^Daway If the s^Emtory is ^Cover, t^Ghis chapter my ^Dlast Let it ^Cbe my best one, ^Amlet it be my^Em own
