Am G/Am F/Am
Following the path as it leads toward
Amb5 D D/D#
The darkness in the north
Am G/Am F/Am
Weary stranger's faces show their sympathy
Amb5 D D/D#
They've seen that hope before
A D
And if you want to stay for a little bit
A D
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
D/E
For you the night is beckoning
D
And now you can't delay
D/E
You hear the night birds calling you
D/F
But you can't catch the words they say
D/E D A
And you realize you must be on your way
Am G/Am
Mystery swelling, creatures crawling
F/Am Amb5 D D/E D
Hear the roar get louder in your ears
Am G/Am
You know the folly was your own
F/Am Amb5 D D/E D
But the force behind can't conquer all you fears
A D
And if you want to stay for a little bit
A D
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
D/E
For you the night is beckoning
D
And now you can't delay
D/E
You hear the night birds calling you
D/F
But you can't catch the words they say
D/E D A
And you realize you must be on your way
Am G/Am
Throw your thoughts back many years
F/Am Amb5 D D/E D
To the time when love was life with every morning
Am G/Am
Perhaps a day will come,
F/Am Amb5 D D/E D
When the match for me the curlers past warning
A D
And if you want to stay for a little bit
A D
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
D/E
For you the night is beckoning
D
And now you can't delay
D/E
You hear the night birds calling you
D/F
But you can't catch the words they say
D/E D A
And you realize you must be on your way
