Intro: A#m, F#, C#, G# 

A#m         G# 
 The sky is blind 
         F# 
 Eternal night 
               C#                  D#m  
 Keeps telling me to quit the fight  
                        A#m G# 
 And in this shelter I realize  


A#m      G#  
 So many times  
               F# 
 I’ve tried to find 
         C#                  D#m 
 Another one to close my eyes 
                                 A#m     G# 
 But all these years I’ve fallen down in vain  

  
C# 
 Silence so unreal 
G#                           D#m 
 Smoke gathers from the flame 
  
 The wind defeats me 
 F#                     C# G#   
 Hoping you'll still be there 

  
A#m       F#           C#   
 When the fire dies at night 
          G#               A#m    
 When the burning rain subsides 
         F#              C#       G#  
 Take my hand and slowly fall into me 
A#m    F#              C# 
 Every time I close my eyes 
       G#                  F# 
 I can see your smile it's beckoning  
                G# 
 For me to come home  

  
A#m            G#  
 I’ve tried to run 
               F#   
 I’ve tried to hide 
          C#                 D#m 
 Tried to face the fear inside 
                             A#m   G#  
 But in the end the darkness finds me 
  
A#m      G#                F#  
 Made of stone and made of fire 
          C#                        D#m 
 Then the breath that binds our hearts 
  
 So when the ships go down 
      A#m       G#  
 I'll hold you near 

  
C#                  
 Silence so unreal 
G#                         D#m 
 Smoke gathers from the flame 
  
 A toxic people 
 F#              C# G#  
 Chemicals in the air 


A#m       F#           C#   
 When the fire dies at night 
          G#               A#m    
 When the burning rain subsides 
         F#              C#       G#  
 Take my hand and slowly fall into me 
A#m    F#              C# 
 Every time I close my eyes 
       G#                  F# 
 I can see your smile it's beckoning  
                G# 
 For me to come home
