Tim O'Brien - When the mist clears away

^CThe other morning at the sunrise When the ^Ammist is on the hills and all ar^Cound I saw a b^Ceautiful grey haired wo^Amman On the ^Croad as I ^Gdrove into^C town Well I pulled ^Amover and I a^Emsked her If I could ^Fgive her a lift upon her ^Cway ^G She said no ^Cthank you I'm almost home now^Am I'll be alr^Cight when the ^Gmist clears away ^C

Let the ^Amsunlight break through the da^Emrkness And let the ^Fnight turn to beautiful ^Cday ^G Don't let the sha^Cdows turn into mounta^Amins You'll be all r^Cight when the mis^Gt clears awa^Cy

The other ^Cevening long past the ^Csundown When the ^Amneon lights are flashing in the n^Cight I saw a y^Coung man sit on a door s^Amtep That ^Cman was a ^Gpitiful ^Csight His eyes were ^Ambloodshot, his hands were t^Emrembling I hesi^Ftated as I thought I heard him^C say ^G I know you l^Cose some, I hope you win ^Amsome You'll be al^Cright when the ^Gmist clears ^Caway ^{G C}

I've been ^Clonely, I've been ^Cangry Sometimes I ^Amdon't know just which way to t^Curn I've been l^Cazy, I've been jeal^Amous Somet^Cimes you know I t^Ghink I'll never ^Clearn But deep ins^Amide me if I l^Emisten There's a ^Ftiny voice that always seems to ^Csay ^G Don't be mis^Ctaken you're not forsa^Amken You'll be al^Cright when the ^Gmist clears a^Cway

Let the ^Amsunlight break through the d^Emarkness And let the n^Fight turn to beautiful ^Cday ^G Don't let the ^Cshadows turn into mount^Amains You'll be all r^Cight when the m^Gist clears a^Cway ^{G C}
