Soft Black Stars chords
Antony and The Johnsons *
F Am G
F Am G
Little children snuggle,
F G Am
under soft black stars
F Am G
And if you look into their eyes,
F G Am
soft black stars
C Am
Deliver them from the book,
F G
and the letter and the word
F Am G
And let them read the silence,
F G Am
bathed in soft black stars
F Am G
Let them trace the raindrops,
F G Am
under soft black stars
F Am G
Let them follow whispers,
F G Am
and scare away the night
C Am
Let them kiss the feather breath,
F G
of soft black stars
F Am G
And let them ride their horses,
F G Am
licked by the wind and the snow
F Am G
And tip-toe into twilight,
F G Am
where we all one day will go
F Am G
Caressed with tenderness,
F G Am
and with no fear at all
C Am
Their faces shining river gold,
F G
washed by soft black stars
F Am G
And angels' wings shall soothe their cares,
F G Am
and all the birds shall sing at dawn,
F Am G
blessed and wet with joy
C Am
You and I will meet one day,
F G
under the night sky,
F G Am
lit by soft black stars.
