On a lonely [C] walk this [E] morning, a light missed [Em] in the [G] air.
[Em] _ [E] _
_ Clouds laughing [C] at me in [E] silence, _ casting [Em] shadows through [G] my hair.
[E] In the distance [C] I saw a [E] woman, dressed in black [G] with flowers of grey.
[E] _ She wore a cane like [C] a shackled _ [E] spirit.
_ The night [C] was a death, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _

[C] _ [E] _
_ [Em] And I [D] could set me free. _ _ _

_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [E] _ The wind song [C] is a warning, [E] _
telling me to [G] _ beware.
_ _ [E]
Of a quiet, [C] shadowed woman, [E] _
the sadness [G] I would share.
[E]
We sat for some time [C] together in [E] silence, never speaking [G] in words. _
[E] _ Apollo thoughts [C] she spoke with her [E] eyes.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [E] _
The [Em] baby was dead.
_ _ [E] _
[Em] It's the [D] silence, _ _ [C] _ [Bm] _ [E] _

_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [E] _ The _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [E]
words she spoke were [C] unforgotten _ [E] lies.
And of all the [Em] knowledge she [G] gave.
[E] _
Memories I had, I [C] didn't know why.
[E] With a smile she [Em] [Bm] explained.
_ [G] _
[E] I should have listened [C] to the wind's cold [E] warning.
And walked the other [Em] way.
[G] _ _
_ [E] I touched her soul and [C] now I bear her [E] stringed hands.
But far _ [G] _ _ [C]
because, _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [E] _
_ the baby was [G] dead.
[C] _ [B] _ [E] _
[Em] It's the [D] silence, _ _ [C] _ [Bm] _ [E] _
