Standard tuning – Capo 5
[Verse 1]
G I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh (picking) EmCEmC As the snowflakes covered my fallen brothers (picking) GCG I will say this last goodbye
[Bridge]
EmC Night is now falling GD So ends this day EmC The road is now calling GD And I must away EmC Over hill and under tree AmC Through lands where never light is shined G By silver streams CD That run down to the sea
[Hook 1]
EmC Under cloud, beneath the stars AmC Over snow and winters moor GCDAm I turn it last to paths that lead home CEm And though where the road then takes me DAmC I cannot tell, we came all this way Em But now comes the day D To bid you farewell
[Verse 2] (start picking)
GCG Many places I have been GCG Many sorrows I have seen EmC But I don't regret EmC Nor will I forget GCG All that took that road with me
[Bridge]
EmC Night is now falling GD So ends this day EmC The road is now calling GD And I must away
(stop picking)
EmC Over hill and under tree AmC Through lands where never light is shined G By silver streams CD That run down to the sea
[Hook 2]
EmC Towards these memories I will hold AmC With your blessing I will go GCDAm To turn at last to paths that lead home
CEm And though where the road then takes me DAmC I cannot tell, we came all this way Em But now comes the day D To bid you farewell
