^Am There is no turning back, from this ^Dmunending path of ^Ammine Serpentine and black, it ^Dmstands before my ^Ameyes To hell and back, it will ^Dmlead me once ^Ammore It's all i have, as i ^Dmstumble in and out of ^Fgrace

CHORUS - continue F

I walk through the ^Cgardens, of ^Gdying ^Flight, And cross all the ^Crivers, ^Gdeep and dark as the ^Fnight Searching for a ^Creason, why ^Gtime would've passed us ^Dmby

vERSE 2: Am Dm With every step i take, the less i know myself Every vow i break, on my way towards your heart Countless times i've prayed, for forgiveness But gods just laugh at my face, And this path remains Leading me into solitude's arms. CHORUS 2: continue F

I see through the ^Cdarkness, my ^Gway back ^Fhome The journey seems ^Cendless, but ^Gi'll carry ^Fon The shadows will ^Crise and, ^Gthey will ^Dmfall ^G And our night drowns in ^Dmdawn ^G

Am Dm: Ohhhhh,, woooaaa Ohhhhh,,, woooaaaa (something like that, listen to the song, you'll get it) VERSE 3:

^Am Amidst all tears there's a smile,That all ^Dmangels greet with an envious ^Amsong One look into stranger's eyes, and i ^Dmknow where i be^Flong

CHORUS 3: continue F F C G, F C G, F C G Dm G Dm I walk through the gardens, of dying light, And cross all the rivers, deep and dark as the night Searching for a reason, why time would've passed us by I see through the darkness, my way back home The journey seems endless, but i'll carry on The shadows will rise and, they will fall And our night drowns in dawn the shadows they rise and they, fallllll, yeah and our night drowns in dawn... ohhh Please for any suggestions or if you know the solos then just email me on thmarios@cytanet.com.cy, it will be nice to know more people love this songas much me.
