 3    -3    -3   -3    4    -3 
We  walked  in  the  cold  air
 4     4      4     4  4  -4    4    4 
Freez-ing  breath  on  a  win-dow  pane
-3  -3   3     4   -3
Ly-ing  and  wait-ing
4  4   4  4   4     4 4  -4  4    4
A man in the dark, in a picture frame
-4  -4   4   -3    5  -4  
So myst-ic  and  soul-ful
3   4     4   4   4   4  4   4   4   4
A voice reaching out and a piercing cry
-4    -4    -4    -3   5  -4
It  stays  with  you  un-til
 -9  -9   8   8   8  -8 -8  -8  7  7    
The feel-ing is gone on-ly you and I
-8   -8   -8   7  -7  7
It means noth-ing to me
 -8    -8   -8   7  -7  7     
This means noth-ing to me
-8        8   -8    7
Oh.....  Vi - en - na

 3   -3   -3  -3  4    -3
The mus - ic  is weav-ing
 4    4    4     4  4  -4  4    4    
Haunting notes, piz-zi-ca-to strings
 -3  -3  -3  3   4   -3
The ryth-em is call-ing
 3  4  4  4    4    4  4   -4   4     4   
Alone in the night as the daylight brings
 -4  -4  -4 -3  5   -4
 A cool emp-ty sil-ence
 5     5    5   5    5   -4 -4 -4    4   4
The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky
 -4  6    6  5   -6   6
It fades to the distance
 -9  -9   8   8  8   -8 -8 -8   7  7    
The im - age is gone on-ly you and I
-8  -8   -8   7  -7  7
It means nothing to me
 -8   -8   -8   7  -7  7
This means nothing to me
-8        8   -8    7
Oh.....  Vi - en - na
