#1.
Em C Am D
Silence, to hear once more.....her footsteps,
G B7
down the shadowed corridor.
Em C Am
Frightened, you're overdue..
D G B7
The darkest day goes on until it's blessed by you.
CHORUS:
C Cm G F
Archangel, risin' on the Moon, just to save me from
this tomb.
C Cm G F
I'll cry the tears of time all day, til she wipes
Em
them all away.
#2.
A A7
Outside my window, on silver trumpets children play.
D
I stand here watching, the dying of an ageless day.
A A7
Dismiss young couples, who go home to their knowing bed,
A D
and watch the rooftops, where silent shadows slowly tread.
#3.
Em C Am D
Sleeping their dreamless sleep......they'll never know
G B7
the secrets this room keeps.
Em C Am
They'll wait when I'm born again..
D G B7
The rent's been paid, so, hurry, carry me away.
CHORUS:
C Cm G F
Archangel, risin' on the Moon, just to save me from
this tomb.
C Cm G F
I'll cry the tears of time all day, til she wipes
Em
them all away.
