Nightwind

Intro 
Dm 


[Verso 1]
 
     Dm 
What frozen fortune 
   Dm 
We meet again 
      C/G 
Where luster once glinted 
   A 
So solemn and grim 

Dm Dm 

 Dm 
Behold how patient 
     Dm 
With hollow grace 
    C/G 
The eyes of the breakman 
     A7 
Like two open graves 
 


[Refrão]
 
Dm                             Dm 
Peer into the gaping shapeless nightwind 
C/G                       F 
Daring us to leave it all behind 
    Dm                                Dm 
And gliding on a mist that shrouds us faceless 
    C/G                       F 
All together, so alone, we'll ride 
    C/G                   A7 
All together, so alone... 

   N.C. 
We ride 

Dm Dm 
 


[Verso 2]
 
     Dm 
With pain and courage 
     Dm 
Your fare's been paid 
C/G 
What use is honor on a 
A 
Passenger train? 
  Dm 
Beyond the glass 
  Dm 
Unyielding haze 
   C/G 
Contorts your reflection and 
A 
Empties your gaze 

A7 
 


[Refrão]
 
Dm                             Dm 
Peer into the gaping shapeless nightwind 
C/G                            F    A 
Blacking out the windows as we fly 
Dm                                   Dm 
A thousand panes encase our blurring faces 
    C/G                    F 
All together, so alone, we ride 
    C/G                    A7 
All together, so alone... 

  N.C. 
We ride

[Verso 3]
 
        Dm 
Through groans of steel 
  Dm 
A hungry scream 
C/G 
Tears at the oil-soaked 
A 
Wall of black steam 
Dm 
Bursting through 
     Dm 
That roiling squall 
     C/G 
The twisting blue ghost light 
A 
Thunders her call 

A7 
 


[Refrão]
 
Dm                                    Dm 
Piercing through the gaping shapeless nightwind 
C/G                            F     A 
Blacking out the windows as we fly 
 Dm                                    Dm 
Along the lonesome rails that shake us faithless 
    C/G                    F 
All together, so alone, we ride 
    C/G                    F 
All together, so alone, we ride 
    C/G                    A7 
All together, so alone... 

 N.C 
We die
