  			Intro: Em G D (2x)

Em                G 
Pretty eyes don't tell me lies 
Em           D            Em G D 
Got a legend in the night 
Em                G 
I'm crashing into desert sands 
Em            D               Em G D 
Eat the rust against the land 
Em                       G 
The desert's blowing and nothing grows 
Em                 D                Em G D 
Wind whipped hills stripped to bones 
Em                G 
Oh history please let me go 
Em               D        Em G D 
Let me be, leave me alone 


 

Em                  G 
There's a light now there's a light 
D              Em           C G D 
Coming down my mountain side 
Em          G 
Oh my my if lonely souls 
D             Em          C G D 
I can feel it in my bones 


Em            G 
Softer hands, softer touch 
Em                 D             Em G D 
Ruffle wounds that burn too much 
Em             G 
Angel bringing back her hearse 
Em         D               Em G D 
Carried by the night nurse 

(Chorus) 

Em              G 
Standing vision in the door 
Em           D            Em G D 
Pretty thing save my soul 
Em             G 
I hear trouble in the land 
Em                 D           Em G D 
A fist that beats into the man 

(Chorus) 

Outro: Em G D (4x)
