Mark Erelli - End of the day

Trees grow ^Dtall ^Em Leaves ^Bmfall ^F Flowers ^A7wither and ^Gdie The music ^Dstops ^Em The curtains ^Bmdrop ^C The ^Cmriver rolls on ^Gby

The ^Cmonarchs go To ^GMexico ^CHow do they ^Gknow the ^Fway ^C Each ^Gquestion ^Bmleads To ^Cmmore myste^Bmries ^Am At the ^Dend of the ^Gday

Thunder ^Dbooms ^Em Clouds hide the ^Bmmoon ^F No sign of ^A7heaven’s blue ^Gdome It’s just as ^Ddark ^Em And raining just as ^Bmhard ^C When I ^Cmwake up far from ^Ghome

A ^Clonesome serenade ^GWhining down the grade Re^Cminds me ^GI can never ^Fstay^C... Another ^Gtrial, another ^Bmtest ^CmMiles before I ^Bmrest ^Am At the ^Dend of the ^Gday

I’ve left a ^Dwake of broken ^Emhearts I don’t even ^Bmknow where to ^Fstart I’m lost in the ^A7forest of re^Ggrets Following the ^Dcrumbs ^Em Trying to undo ^Bmall I’ve ^Cdone Somehow I ^Cmcan’t retrace my ^Gsteps

^CNaked as a bone Don’t ^Gleave me here all alone ^CWith this ^Ghollow heart of ^Fclay ^C Ain’t ^Geveryone de^Bmvout ^CmWhen the ^Bmsand is running ^Amout At the ^Dend of the ^Gday

Campfire ^Dtowns ^Em Smouldering on the ^Bmground ^F With their ^A7embers all a^Gglow You’re somewhere down there I ^Dguess ^Em The moonlight on your ^Bmbreast ^C Blue as the ^Cmnew fallen ^Gsnow

I ^Cdo what I do ^GYou do too ^CThat’s just the ^Gprice that we ^Fpay ^{C G}Stronger for our ^Bmscars And ^Cmwiser by ^Bmfar ^Am At the ^Dend of the ^Gday
