Chords with lyrics

Capo 3

Intro: DmDm / DmDm / G+G / G+G


C majorC               A minorAm
There's a light that's shining now
FF           C majorC
And a calm wind in the pine
C majorC             A minorAm
For the fate of a fearsome travesty
DmDm
Seems to have forgotten me
Fmaj7Fmaj7
Seems to have forgotten me

C majorC            A minorAm
If it hasn't learned by now
FF           C majorC
Where I've hid so very long
C majorC               A minorAm
I'll come safely out into the silence found
DmDm
In the wake of its passing on
Fmaj7Fmaj7
In the wake of its passing on

FF          C majorC       DmDm       G+G
A augmentedA Spartan smile and westward stare hold a promise in the air
FF                   C majorC
That's the way they used to find their own way home
DmDm      G+G
By the stars, on their own
DmDm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
By the stars, on their own

C majorC             A minorAm
While I pray for Promised Land
FF           C majorC
To replace all I have made
C majorC              A minorAm
Darkness steals the light I bear
DmDm
And the hope of a lifetime fades
Fmaj7Fmaj7
The hope of a lifetime fades


BRIDGE: DmDm / DmDm / G+G / G+G / C majorC / C majorC / FF / FF / DmDm / G+G / C majorC / C majorC

C majorC          A minorAm
In the newfound reverie
FF        C majorC
Of quiet peace I found
C majorC            A minorAm
Freedom comes from being unafraid
DmDm
Of the heartache that can plague a man
Fmaj7Fmaj7
The heartache that can plague a man


FF          C majorC       DmDm       G+G
A augmentedA Spartan smile and westward stare hold a promise in the air
FF                   C majorC
That's the way they used to find their own way home
DmDm      G+G
By the stars, on their own
DmDm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
By the stars, on their own


OUTRO: DmDm / DmDm / G+G /G / C majorC / C majorC
