Em          G            Cmaj7
    It gets lonely after dark
Em            G            Cmaj7
    When everyone has gone away
Asus2                        G                    C
    And all the fireflies outside have lost their spark

Em             G               Cmaj7
    I sit here waiting for the day
Em       G               Cmaj7
    When no deep shadows form
Asus2                          G              C
    and nothing lurking in the darkness can betray

Bm                                    Cmaj7
    Where there's no sound of distant storms
Bm                             Cmaj7
    and everything is safe and warm
Bm                                   Asus2         E
    and there's a rainbow child just waiting to be born

               Cmaj7               Bm
    But if you see any sign of the sunrise
C#m                     Asus2
    Call me and I'll be sworn
             E              B               Asus2
    to press on towards the breaking of the day

    I don't know how it got so weird
    We got fire from the sky
    Got madmen running 'round with kalashnikovs and beards
    and I'm still to young to die

    But this valley is my home
    and I've got a backup plan in case it's blown away
    I've had to reap the seeds I've sown
    and all my money has been blown
    Forward's the only direction I've ever known.

    and if I'm not around before sunrise
    don't look for me, cause I'll be gone
    and reborn in the breaking of the day
