  			C                F             C 
I saw the light fade from the sky 
C            F         C 
On the wind I heard a sigh 
C             F              Am 
As the snowflakes cover my fallen   
 C 
brothers 
C 
I will say this last goodbye 
Am 
Night is now falling 
F 
So ends this day 
C 
The road is now calling 
    G 
And I must away 
Am                   F 
Over hill and under tree 
                    C 
Through lands where never light has 
G 
Shone 

Am                     F 
By silver streams that run down to  
     Dm 
the sea 
F          C       
Under cloud, beneath the stars 
      F                 G  
Over snow and winter's morn 
Am                 F 
I turn at last to paths that lead  
Dm 
home 
F                  C              
And, oh, where the road then takes  
F 
me 
G 
I can not tell 
F.           Am 
We came all this way 
    G             Fm 
But now comes the day 
                G 
To bid you farewell 
     C     F   C    C 
Many places I have been 
     C     F    C    C 
Many sorrows I have seen 
    Am    F 
But don't regret 
    Am    F 
Nor will I forget 
    F         C             F 
All who took that road with me 


Night is now falling 
So ends this day 
The road is now calling 
And I must away 
Over hill, and under tree 
Through lands where never light has shone 
By silver streams that run down to the sea 
To these memories I will hold 
With your blessing I will go 
To turn at last to paths that lead home 

And, oh, where the road then takes me, 
I can not tell 
We came all this way 
But now comes the day 
To bid you farewell 
F                          C 
I bid you all a very fond farewell
