[Em]
[A] [G]
[B] [E]
[A] Whoa, watch out!
You're bone is springtime, [F#m] won't you let fly?
You're shattered by, aren't you [B]
hunting?
You're quarreling now, are you [Dm]
leaving me babe?
Leaving anyhow, but [A] I will remember you when the rain falls down
[C#m] And I see you standing there in your bright blue gown
[G] See your door is [B] down, still it doesn't care [E] you're gone
[D]
[E]
[E] [D]
[E] [A] Tell me, you don't want to travel
Or [F#m] let it go back amidst the noise and my bones [B] are churning
When I tell you that, [Dm] you know it won't be so long babe
You know you're coming back [A] and I'll wait right here till the sky is [C#m] clear
And I'll keep looking into that endless [G] sky
Then you're gonna know there really wasn't [E] nothing to fear
[D]
[E] [D]
[E] [D]
[E] [A]
Don't cry baby in the dark of night
When you know I ain't there to hold you [C#m] tight
And I can't answer any of your [F#m] question branches
Like the [B] wind we woke up in the morning
And we saw the dawn was storming
[Dm] And the clouds were there, love
And sudden wind just fell
[A] And the sun came rising
It was [C#m] surprising to cast out all your dark [G] surmises
And the clock came, spoke my [E] name and left me Yeah, [D] yeah
[E] [D]
[E] [D]
[E] [A] I'm not alone on this earth so fair
There's something else beside me, yeah
[C#]
Something to keep me ever [F#m] looking forward
Yeah, [B] and it's brighter than the sunlight
And it's purer than the moonlight
And [Dm] it's drawing me toward it like a moth out of the night
And [A] I know I'll arrive where there ain't no time
[C#m] Not a venture, no plan, no joy or supply
[G] Keep on being [B] free, what it's gotta [E] be
Yeah, yeah, [D]
yeah
[E] [D] [A] [E] [D]
