[Bb] [Dm]
[F] The [Db] [Ab] [F] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [Cm] [Bb] night's long [Am] and the wind [D] is [Gm] howling down [Bb] [Eb] into the hollow [E] somewhere [Bb] deep inside.
[F] I can [Dm] hear you calling [F] out, [Ab] Christ [F] is great, [Bb] [Eb] divine.
[Bb] [Cm] Ain't [Bb] right or wrong, [Am] there's a feeling [D] in [Gm] my heart.
[Bb] [Eb] I tried to follow, [Bb] but lately I just hide and dream of [Dm] somebody calling [F] out, [Ab] Christ
[F] is great, [Bb] divine.
[Ab] [Eb] [Gm] [D] [Gm] Isolation, [Bb] hop like a drum, [Eb] [F] and the beating is [Bb] wearing me down.
[Cm] [Bb] [Cm] I'm standing [G] at the [D] station, [Gm] but the train [Bb] never comes.
[E] Still I'm [A] hanging on, [Dm] like some old [G] ghost town.
[C] Miles to go, [Bm] but I see [E] there's no one [Am] way out.
[C] [F] Stars in the distance, [Gb] skies are [C] open wide.
Waiting [G] for my [Em] soul [G] to arise, [Bb] above [Gm] this [G] great [C] divide.
[Bm] [E] [Am]
[C] [F] [Gb] [C]
[G] [Bb]
[Gm] [G] [C] [F]
[E] [Am] Desperation, is a [C] dangerous blame, [F]
[G] in a reckless and [C] trembling hand.
[Dm] [C] [Dm]
[A] Sweet [E] salvation, [Am] just a dead [C] line away.
[Gb] I should [B] cut the rope, [Em] but I'll make [A] my stay.
[D] The night's so long, [Dbm] but I'll close [Gb] my eyes [Bm] again.
[D] [G] Until tomorrow, [Ab] step the [D] bonds right.
Touch the [Gbm] face I long [A] to see, [C] above [Am] this [Gb] great [Bm] divide.
[E] Oh love, [D]
we'll be [Gbm] all we long [A] to be, [C] beyond [A] this great [D] [G] divide.
[D] [Em] [D] [N]
