🎸 Verse 1:
A augmentedA
Oh, archer with your bowstring tight
     F# minorF#m
Won't you let fly with your shaft of light
    BB
Are you hunting your quarry now?
    DmDm
Are you leaving me, babe, leaving anyhow?
   A augmentedA
But I will remember you when the rain pours down
   C# minorC#m
And I see you standing there in your bright blue gown
G+G        BB
Fyodor's there, still he doesn't care
    E MajorE
You're gone

🎸 Verse 2:
A augmentedA
Tell me you don't want to travel
  F# minorF#m
To go back amidst the noise and babble
    BB
But you hear me when I tell you that
  DmDm
You know it won't be so long, babe You know you're coming back
     A augmentedA
And I'll wait right here till the sky is clear
     C# minorC#m
And I'll keep looking into that endless sphere
  G+G
And then you're gonna know
BB               E MajorE
There really wasn't nothing to fear

🎸 Instrumental:
D MajorD  E MajorE x3

🎸 Verse 3:
A augmentedA
So don't cry, baby, in the dark of night When you know I ain't there to hold you tight
F# minorF#m
And I can't answer any of your questing glances
       BB
Like when we woke up in the morning And we saw the dawn was storming
    DmDm
And the clouds were there love Outside the window so fair
    A augmentedA
And the sun came rising, it was surprising
C# minorC#m
Cast out all your dark surmising
  G+G         BB
And then the car came, you spoke my name
  E MajorE
And left me

🎸 Instrumental:
D MajorD  E MajorE x3

🎸 Verse 4:
A augmentedA
But I'm not alone on this earth so fair There's something else beside me here
F# minorF#m
Something keeps me ever looking forward
     BB
And it's brighter than the sunlight And it's purer than the moonlight
     DmDm
And it's drawing me toward it Like a moth out of the night
   A augmentedA
And I know I'll arrive where there ain't no time
  C# minorC#m
Non dimensional plane of joy sublime
G+G          BB
Keep on being free, Lord, it's gotta be
 E MajorE
Infinity, hey
