Hey Guys it's my first Tab so if you have the time, please give me a feedback or a correction :)
This song is a great, epic, and beautiful song I think. Ronnie James Dio wrote it in 1979 when he
became singer of Black Sabbath
I hope you enjoy to Play real music and not this modern macbook-dupstep-crap ;)

Dm [Intro 2x]
Dm [INTRO] (Dsus4) (Dsus4) (Dsus4) (Dsus4)
In the misty morning, on the edge of time. We've lost the rising sun, a final sign
(Dsus4) (Dsus4) Dmaj
As the misty morning rolls away to die. Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D* 2x
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
We sailed across the air before we learned to fly.
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
We thought that it could never end
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
We'd glide above the ground before we learned to run, run.
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Now it seems our world has come undone
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C*
Oh they say that it's over, And it just had to be
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* G* C* H* D* A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Ooh they say that it's over, We're lost children of the sea, oh
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
We made the mountains shake with laughter as we played.
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Hiding in our corner of the world
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Then we did the demon dance and rushed to nevermore.
A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Threw away the key and locked the door
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C*
Oh they say that it's over, Yeah. And it just had to be
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* C* H* D*
Yes, they say that it's over, We're lost children of the sea, oh

Dm [Intro 2x]
Dm [INTRO] (Dsus4) (Dsus4) (Dsus4) (Dsus4)
In the misty morning, on the edge of time. We've lost the rising sun, a final sign
(Dsus4) (Dsus4) Dmaj
As the misty morning rolls away to die. Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C*
Oh they say that it's over, And it just had to be
C* G* A* H*/C* H*/C* G* C* H* D* A* H*/C* H*/C* A* G* D*
Ooh they say that it's over, Poor lost children of the sea, oh
A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* D* A*
LOOK OUT! The sky is falling down!
A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* D* A*
LOOK OUT! The world is spinning round and round and round!
A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* D* A*
LOOK OUT! The sun is going black, black
A* H*/C* H*/C* C* G* D* A*
LOOK OUT! It's never never never coming back, LOOK OUT!
