Darkest Hour Just Before Dawn chords by Emmylou Harris (Ver. 2)

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
D                 G
The sun is slowly sinking
    D      A      D
The day is almost gone
                     G
Still darkness falls around us
    D       A       D
And we must journey on


Chorus:
G                   D
The darkest hour is just before dawn
                     A
The narrow way leads home
    D         D7      G      D
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
    D7              A           D
The darkest hour is just before dawn

Verse 2:
D                          G
Like a shepherd out on the mountain
  D            A          D
A-watching the sheep down below
                    G
He's coming back to claim us
D           A        D
Will you be ready to go?


Chorus:
G                   D
The darkest hour is just before dawn
                     A
The narrow way leads home
    D         D7      G      D
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
    D7      D       A           D
The darkest hour is just before dawn
