        Verse 1 (first 2 lines is Figure #1, second two lines is Figure #2)
               G                       C
	In the dresser he kept all the letters
                G                     C
        All the prizes of lovers gone wrong
               G         G/F#      Am
        As the rain sped down, the new love he found
            Em                Cmaj7      D
        Lay sleeping while he wrote this song

        Verse 2
        The blue candle burned in the small room
        As he stared at the form in his bed
        Like a flower bloomed, she lit up the room
        And his life had begun again

        Chorus (as in Figure #2)
        Am                 Em
        Time is not such a boundary
              Am                   Em
        Not a river that cannot be crossed
        	Am                    Em
        And her advent into his small kingdom
            Cmaj7         D
        Has cancelled the loss

        Verse 3
        Mutual accolades and freedom
        What great love can grow from respect
        His hands on her sides, an ethereal ride
        It was like they had never left

        Verse 4
        In a small museum in a small town
        He found the jewels he would use for her crown
        The blonde king and queen, she would wear his ring
        And he would sing her songs.

        Chorus

        Verse 5 (over chorus)
	        Am                      Em
        But her beauty is more than her long hair
               Am                      Em
        Or her face or her lips or her skin
            Am                      Em
        The royal gatekeeper to her kingdom
            Cmaj7   D
        Has let him in
