Silver In The Shadow

G              Em             Bm             Em
Snow's falling softly and the grass is still green
    C                                 G
The captain above me is so luminously clean
      G     Em           G           C
We’re daisy companions a man and his piece
G          Em         D7             G
Silver and shadow and clothes just a dream


Oh I hear you heaving a-kicking dirt
I know that it's broken And I know that it hurts
There's a river of nothing And you die in a thirst
Just one sip and off you swing To the last day you'll work


Do you die like an Irish In an anthracite mine
Are you alive like the first night With your candle lit bright
She's your darling companion And so thoughtlessly kind
Ride out to meet her, the day we survive
