The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze,
[D]The lightning b[G]olt that frees the [Em]sky for y[A]ou
[F]Yet only e[G]agles seem to p[C]ass on thr[D9]ough.
[F]The words of l[Bb]ove, the cr[C]ies of ha[F]te,
[Bb]And the m[Am]an in the m[Bb]oon who sed[F]uced you
Then f[Bb]inally l[F]oosed you.
