[Intro]
Bbm
[Verse 1]
BbmHey, do you know where you're Abgoing?
Have you noticed its Gbsnowing?
Although it is FJune?F
[Verse 2]
BbmThey said your weakness was Abshowing
That your rapture was Gbgrowing
Just a little too FsoonF
[Verse 3]
But Dbunder these mountains
the nights and the shadows grow Ablong
The stars up above you Bbmfeel wrong
This is not your Absky? F
[Chorus 1]
BbmPray F Fm Db

BbmDawn throws its light on the Abcovers
In this bed there's Gbanother
Asleep at your Fside
[Verse 5]
BbmGone, the embrace of a Ablover
And the fire you disGbcovered
Already has Fdied
[Chorus 2]
Her Dbbody recoils
as your hand goes to touch her Abagain
She's a temple that won't let you Bbmin
At her side you're aAbloneF

[Verse 6]
BbmYou carry a vague Abconviction
This life rose from an Gbeviction
Out of your Fhomeland

BbmTrue but it's also Abaddiction
To this soft cruciGbfixion
Under these foreign FhandsF
[Chorus 3]
And Fmlike Dball Christs before you
you kneel down beneath the night Absky
To look into your father's Bbmeyes
Ab F (soft)
And only feel lost

A Cmnew king awaits DbcoroGbnation
But there will be no C/Dgreat Gbrevelation
GbYour journey is your destination
GbDiscomfort could be your salvation
