[Verse]
Em
Coyote plays and shadows the moon
C
He's all alone in the midnight air
D
He runs like never before
Towards the hum and the roar
G D
Will he find a home and stay?
Em
And all the while, the city sleeps
C
It won't be long before they take to the streets
D
They'll be dripping in things
Oh, the shine and the ring
G
Of all the pirated gold
D
What can be bought can be sold
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
On and on coyote runs
Em
Against the hum and roar
Am
No sight, no sound, no sacred ground
G B7
Just people wanting more
[Chorus]
E C
Hey, there's a light out on the horizon
It's shining
D G D
Another day, to find another way
E
Yah, the moon is high
C
The tide is out but it's rising
It's turning again
D
So take a chance
G D
Be lost or borne away
[Verse]
Em
Coyote wakes and runs with the wind
C
Heading west he's returning again
D
He hits the edge of the town
And then he circles around
C D
Don't know if he will stay
Em
And the people sleep with open eyes
C
There's a predator just outside
D
You can hear it's roar
With the crack of every door
G
Day and night
D
He's ready to fight
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
On and on the city goes
E
It's racing more and more
Am
No sight, no sound, just sacred ground
G B7
Can stop its hum and roar
[Chorus]
E C
Hey, there's a light out on the horizon
It's shining
D G D
Another day, to find another way
E
Yah, the moon is high
C
The tide is out but it's rising
It's turning again
D
So take a chance
G D
Be lost or borne away
G C
Run, coyote run
D
And never never go astray
G
It may be night
B7 G
But dark is light and night is day
C
Don't change your coat
D
Or change that pretty shade of gray
G B7
Don't let the world go change your ways
G
Be strong
C D
Don't give in to those shiny, fancy, empty things
G
They'll only strip your heart
B7
Your mind
G
Your soul and your wings
C
Escape the hum escape the roar
D
Now while you can
G B7
And let your scent be known to man
G C D
So go, oh little children, go and don't you be afraid
G B7
Chance the current and the loss
G
Or be borne away
C
Take back yourself
Take back the night
D
Take back today
G B7
And then show the world the way
[Outro]
