Now jealousy must surely be a dragon with emerald eyes
Who seems to be protecting me, that’s his brilliant disguise
But there’s a maiden who’s waiting for me at the top of her tower stairs
But the cobblestone road that lies between us passes by the dragon's lair

Chorus:
But lately I’ve been thinking how he’s keeping us apart
And I see a silver sword
And it's sinking into the dragon’s heart
Deep into the dragon's heart

Now jealousy must surely be a dragon with a split tongue of fire
Who learns to burn anything and everything trying to control desire
And on his side are wings of pride but they’re too small for him to fly
So he waits alone in the shadows for unsuspecting lovers passing by

Chorus

Bridge:
heart – Open up your tower window
Hey, hey I wanna take you far away
Whoa-oa today is where tomorrow starts
And I’m gonna start by sinking my sword in the dragon’s heart

Now jealousy must surely be a dragon in my mind, it’s about time
Hey’ey-ey yea yeah

Chorus:
(F) Sometimes I (G) feel like an (C)Ama (C/B) rillo (Am) windmill
(F) Standing out in the (G) great wide open a (C) lone
(F) Every thought’s a (G) gust a wind
(C) Spins the (C/B) blades in my (Am) mind again
(F) If the spin too much they might break or (G) bend
But (F) if that wild wind (G) ever did lie(Am)still
My (F) dreams would turn to (G) rust out in the (C) fields

So I’ll just watch the world fly by me
There’s a silence welling up inside me
Let the rains fall, let the winds do what they will
Let it all spin, just let me be still

Repeat Chorus:

Add:

But (F) if that wild wind (G) ever did lie(Am)still
My (F) dreams would turn to (G) rust out in the (C) fields
