Intro: Em  Cmaj7  

Am7 
Northwest is where I'm headed, 
                      C/G  Gadd4 
Underneath the golden sky 
     Am7 
I'm searching for a wisdom 
                        C/G   Gadd4 
That every man seeks to find 
         Am7 
I've got wicked thoughts a brewin' 
                      C/G  Gadd4 
Many evil deeds I've done 
     Am7 
I'm looking for a reason 
                    C/G  Gadd4 
For a reason not to run 

     Em 
I've always been dark 
     D/F#                   Em(addC#) 
With light somewhere in the distance    (2x) 
      
     Am7 
I've got no destination  
                    C/G   Gadd4 
No place to call my own 
         Am7 
I'll explore the constellations 
                                 C/G   Gadd4 
Till I find the course I mean to hone 
          Am7 
But come fever or come famine 
                       C/G    Gadd4 
Come the biting winter cold 
             Am7 
Just put two coins upon my eyelids 
                            C/G    Gadd4 
So I can pay the poor man's toll 


     Em 
I've always been dark 
     D/F#                   Em(addC#) 
With light somewhere in the distance    (2x) 
      Em 
I've been so unforgiving 
D/F#             Em(addC#) 
Stranded in old traditions 
     Em 
I've always been dark 
     D/F#                   Em(addC#) 
With light somewhere in the distance  

D/F#  Em   C/G (2x) 

     Em 
I've always been dark 
     D/F#                   Em(addC#) 
With light somewhere in the distance
