Dan Fogelberg - Nexus


INTRO: (lengthy instrumental)

 D MajorD                   D7sus4D7sus4
Across the vein of night there cuts, a path of searing light
G+G              D MajorD      A augmentedA
Burning like a beacon on the edges of our sight
    D MajorD                D7sus4D7sus4
At the point of total darkness and the lights divine divide
 G+G                  D MajorD       A augmentedA      D MajorD  A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
A majorA soul can let its shadow stretch and land on either side, either side


  D MajorD               D7sus4D7sus4
And balanced on the precipice, the moment must reveal
G+G               D MajorD        A augmentedA
Naked in the face of time, our race within the wheel
   D MajorD                D7sus4D7sus4
As we hang beneath the heavens, and we hover over hell
  G+G                 D MajorD        A augmentedA
Our hearts become the instruments, we learn to play so well

CHORUS:
  D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
So wealthy the spirit, that knows its own flight
D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
Stealthy the hunter, who slays his own fright
D MajorD             G+G      A augmentedA       D MajorD   A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Blessed the traveller, who journeys the length of the light


                D7sus4D7sus4
Outside the pull of gravity, beyond the spectral veil
  G+G              D MajorD       A augmentedA
Within our careful reasoning, we search to no avail
    D MajorD               D7sus4D7sus4
For the constant in the chaos, for the fulcrum in the void
G+G            D MajorD       A augmentedA D MajorD  A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Following a destiny, our steps cannot avoid


 D MajorD                   D7sus4D7sus4
Across the vein of night there cuts, a path of searing light
G+G              D MajorD      A augmentedA
Burning like a beacon on the edges of our sight
    D MajorD                D7sus4D7sus4
At the point of total darkness and the lights divine divide
 G+G                  D MajorD       A augmentedA
A majorA soul can let its shadow stretch and land on either side

CHORUS:
D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
wealthy the spirit, that knows its own flight
D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
Stealthy the hunter, who slays his own fright
D MajorD             G+G      A augmentedA       D MajorD
Blessed the traveller, who journeys the length of the light


INSTRUMENTAL: (A augmentedA really long one)


D MajorD                D7sus4D7sus4
In a spiral never-ending, are we drawn toward the source
G+G              D MajorD      A augmentedA
Spinning at the mercy of an unrelenting force
   D MajorD              D7sus4D7sus4
So we stare into the emptiness and fall beneath the weight
G+G      D MajorD               A augmentedA
Circling the Nexus in a fevered dance with fate


CHORUS:
D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
Wealthy the spirit, that knows its own flight
D MajorD            G+G       A augmentedA
Stealthy the hunter, who slays his own fright
D MajorD             G+G      A augmentedA       D MajorD
Blessed the traveller, who journeys the length of the light
