Am      G       Em      D       Am          G 
Horizon                 in the distant sky 
        Em       D       Am    G    Em  D                        
The steady line fixed my eye 
         Am        G            Em D 
For a million miles 

Am    G         Em      D        Am  G          Em      D 
Long quiet              of the afternoon 
Am        G           Em                D 
Dripping lights of evening 
D       Am     G 
I’m no longer blue 

Dsus2      Csus2                   G          A5         
There’s a lamp          If you’ve lost your way 
Dsus2      Csus2                   G          A5         
Stars to guide          Soft fields to lay 

Am      G       Em      D       Am          G 
Safe harbour            from a restless sea 
Em                      D       Am    G    Em   D 
Deep pools of silence calm me 
     Am        G        Em      D        
So I can be 
     Am        G        Em      D 
Wind whispers 
     Am        G        Em      D 
The fog has cleared 
Am                 G              Em    D 
The sound of sacred music 
         Am     G       Em      D 
That I long to hear 

Dsus2      Csus2                G      A5        
I am here to the                very end 
Dsus2      Csus2                G      A5        
No more anxious                 thoughts within 

         Am     G       Em      D       Am          G           Em D 
New seasons                     pass in front of me 
Am              G                       Em   D          Am      G       Em D 
Now there’s a world where I find        I can smile at thee 

Am      G       Em      D 
Am      G       Em      D 
Am      G       Em      D 
Am      G       Em      D 
Dsus2      Csus2                G      A5 
Dsus2      Csus2                G      A5
