Intro: G   D   A 

         G                D        A    G 
When the rest of the world is asleep 

           D             A 
Do you remember that night when you and me 

G                 D          A      G 
Pulled down the steeple of ash 

             D                  A  
The rain was coming down, I was filthy and black? 

G               D            A     G 
Sometimes I feel that my time 

      D     A  
On earth is sorta defined 


        G D A                  G D A    
And my life,   oh it's calling me 

         
        G D A                  G D A    
And my life,   oh it's calling me 

      G               D          A  G 
And I wonder what else it could be 

          D              A   
There are times when I see and don't see 

G               D             A    G 
Sometimes I feel that I'm changed 

         D            A 
By those women on the hill in the rain 

G    D     Em 

        D         A         G      Em 
In this vision of earthly decay 

  D                  A           G     Em 
I see that time will bear us all away 

        D              A               
But I'm sad I won't be here to see it fade 

G     D     A 

       G D A                  G D A 
 And my life, oh it's calling me 

       G D A                  G D A 
 And my life, oh it's calling me 

       G D A                  G D A 
 And my life, oh it's calling me 

G D A (repeat 3x)  

      G               D          A 
And I wonder what else it could be
