Am F
On the Night train
C Em
From the city to the south
Am F
I saw spirits
C Em
Crawl across the river mouth
Am
In skewed ascension
F
with no destination
C Em
like this lone batchelor in me
Am F
This constant yearning for great love and learning
C Em
and the wind to carry me free
Chorus:
F C Am G
So when the birds fly south, reach up and hold their tails
F C Am G
Pull up and out of here and bridle the autumn gales
F C Am G
Down by the burning cliffs, by the unrelenting roll
F C Am G Am(into verse)
Marry the untold blessings and anchor this lost soul
