I see them gather, see them on [B] the shore I turn to look [C] once more, he who knows it all
[G#] Takes me to the belly of [E] darkness [F] The tears run swift [G] and hard, [A] when they [Am] fall
Even [G] leaving the comfort [Gm] of a stone [Bm] would be a [A] gain
[Dm] There was a time when I [C] thought [G#] [E] I would have to give up
But thankful that I'm strong as I am, I'll try to do the best [C#] I can
[Dm] They run swift and tears will come that [Em] pour like rain
[Dm] I pray that their swift gold tears [F] will fall as cold as rain
