Hello again! I am bringing you yet another Carbon Leaf tab. And yet again, this one
done mostly from memory. If you find something that should be fixed, then please leave a comment.
The beginning verse is played with the low E string (which is detailed below the

Light flickers by
G#m
A hundred suns hehind the trees
E
Melts us in a lullaby
G#m
Our eyelids are like movie screens

And we close our eyes
G#m
And feel the warmth come into frame

We close our eyes
G#m
Until our dreams become one and the same
E
So much left for giving

In the year of living dangerously happy

We dance across till we drop

The bells keep time and never stop

We sleep and we wake

To muffled chimes out on the lake
B F#
We dance across till we drop
G#m E
The bells keep time and never stop

We sleep and we wake

E
W've reached a secret place
G#m
To rest and reconcile

We close our eyes

The only change is no change for a while

And we will make this place our own
E
And fill each room with sons and daughters

And never be alone

We dance across till we drop
G#m E
The bells keep time and never stop

We sleep and we wake

The bells keep time and never stop

We sleep and we wake

Looking past the love you face

You miss the place you never had

But what you need's not just the dream

But somethings on the other end

Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.

You're much too fast asleep
