verse 1
Gm
Evening rises, darkness threatens to engulf us all
F
But there's a moon above it's shining ' and I think I hear a call
Gm
It's just a whisper through the trees, my ears can hardly make it out
F
But I can hear it in my heart, vibrating strong as if she shouts
 
[Refrão] Dm C
Oh Ari-adne, I am coming, I just need to work this maze inside my head
Dm
I came here like you asked, I killed the beast, that part of me is dead
C
Oh Ari-adne, I just need to work this maze inside my head
Dm
If only I'd have listened to you when you offered me that thread
 
Bridge
C Dm Dm
 
verse 2
Gm
Everything is quiet and I'm not exactly sure
F
If it really was your voice I heard or maybe it's a door
Gm
That's closing up some hero's back, on his track to be a man
F
Can it be that all us heroes have a path but not a plan?
 
[Refrão] Dm C
Oh Ari-adne, I'm coming, I just need to work this maze inside my mind
Dm
I wish I had that string, it's so damn dark, I think I'm going blind
C
Oh Ari-adne, I just need to work this maze inside my mind
Dm
For the life of me I don't remember what I came to find
 
Bridge
C Dm Dm
 
verse 3
Gm
Now tell me princess are you strolling through your sacred grove?
F
And is the moon still shining? You're the only thing I'm thinking of
Gm
The sword you gave me, it was heavy, I just had to lay it down
F
It's funny how de-fenseless I can feel here when there's nobody a-round
 
[Refrão] Dm C
Oh Ari-adne, I'm coming, I just need to work this maze inside my heart
Dm
I was blind, I thought you'd bind me, but you offered me a chart
C
Oh Ari-adne, I just need to work this maze inside my heart
Dm
If I'd known that you could guide me, I'd have listened from the start
 
Bridge
C Dm Dm
 
verse 4
Gm
Somewhere up there midnight strikes, I think I hear the fall
F
Of little drops of water, magnified a-gainst the barren wall
Gm
It's more a feeling than a substance, but there's nobody a-round
F
And when I'm in here all a-lone, it's just en-ough to let me drown
 
[Refrão] Dm C
Oh Ari-adne, I was coming, but I failed you in this labyrinth of my past
Dm
Oh Ari-adne, let me sing you, and we'll make each other last
C
Oh Ari-adne, I have failed you in this labyrinth of my past
Dm
Oh Ari-adne, let me sing you, and we'll make each other last
