The Dying Of The Light

[Intro] Em  A4  C7M/G  A4
        Em  A4  C7M/G  A4

   Em                    A4               C7M/G   A4
I keep on running but I can't get to the mountain
   Em              A4              C7M/G     A4
Behind me lie the years that I’ve misspent
    Em                        A4            C7M/G   A4
And I've been sinking like a flower in the fountain
              Em             A4            C7M/G  A4
When all the love I'm gonna need is heaven sent

      A9
Gonna try my best to get there
      C7M/G
But I can't afford the bus fare
         A4
And the storm that's rolling over
         A9            C7M/G
Man, it makes me wanna cry

    Em     A4            C7M/G                   A4
And I was told that the streets were paved with gold
                   Em               A4              C7M/G  A4
And there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
    Em      A4           C7M/G            A4
But it's alright, if you dance with me tonight
                 Em           A4                       C7M/G  A4
We'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

  Em                     A4                       C7M/G  A4
I Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere
    Em                   A4              C7M/G  A4
The echoes that I could hear were all my own

Em                       A4             C7M/G  A4
The world had turned and I'd become a stranger
                  Em               A4             C7M/G  A4
And I’m tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

          A9
'Cause I try my best to get there
      C7M/G
But I can't afford the bus fare
          A4
And the storm that's rolling over
         A9            A7(9)
Man, it makes me wanna cry

         C7M/G
But the cold against my shoulder
         A4
When it comes on in the winter
        A9
And it seems to last forever
       C7M/G              A4
And it makes me wanna, it makes me wanna cr

Em     A4            C7M/G                   A4
I was told that the streets were paved with gold
                   Em               A4              C7M/G  A4
And there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
    Em      A4           C7M/G            A4
But it's alright, if you dance with me tonight
                 Em           A4                       C7M/G  A4
We'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun
