Karliene - Into The West
[Intro] (spoken)
For Sam, the evening deepened to darkness as he stood at the Haven.
And as he looked at the grey scene, he saw only a shadow on the water
that was soon lost in the west.
There still he stood, far into the night, hearing only the sigh and
murmur of the waves on the shores of Middle Earth. And the sound of
them sank deep into his heart.
Beside him stood Merry and Pippin, and they were silent.
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Lay down
Your sweet and weary head
Night is falling
You have come to journey's end
[Verse 2]
C G
Sleep now
Dm Am C
And dream of the ones who came before
G Dm
They are calling
Am
From across the distant shore
[Bridge]
C
Why do you weep
F G Am
What are these tears upon your face
C
Soon you will see
F G Am
All of your fears will pass away
C
Safe in my arms
F G
You're only sleeping
[Pre-Chorus]
C
What can you see
F
On the horizon
C G
Why do the white gulls call
C
Across the sea
F
A pale moon rises
C G
The ships have come to carry you home
[Chorus]
Am Em
And all will turn
Dm G
To silver glass
Am C
A light on the water
F G
All souls pass
[Verse 3]
C G
Hope fades
Dm Am
Into the world of night
C G
Through shadows falling
Dm Am
Out of memory and time
[Verse 4]
C G
Don't say
Dm Am
We have come now to the end
C G
White shores are calling
Dm Am
You and I will meet again
C
And you'll be here in my arms
F G
Just sleeping
[Pre-Chorus]
C
What can you see
F
On the horizon
C G
Why do the white gulls call
C
Across the sea
F
A pale moon rises
C G
The ships have come to carry you home
[Chorus]
Am Em
And all will turn
Dm G
To silver glass
Am C
A light on the water
F G
Grey ships pass
C
Into the west
