Am           Dm

Breathe deep and easy

G       C

Swallow this pride.

Am          Dm

Stare at my shaking hands

Em                Am

through bone dry, blood shot eyes.



Am          Dm

Clock strip the hours, 

G       C

' count the miles.

F                 G

Will you be there waiting, 

Em    Am

awake until sunrise.



F             G

I’ve traveled in darkness, 

Am             C

for what seems like days,

Dm          G

I come from the sinkholes, 

C               Am

collapsed under this weight.

Am         G

I know not your sorrow,

Am         C

but I know mine,

Dm

So say you'll stay

G                 Am

and dance with me tonight.



Am             Dm

In the glow of twilight,

G                    C

our world is finally calm.

Am                 Dm

I felt it complete me,

Em                  Am

when the stars give way to dawn.



Am         Dm

A language universal,

G                   C

but I speak not its tongue.

F                          G

Is this a night that spins forever,

Em                   Am

or a dawn that never comes.



F             G

I’ve traveled in darkness, 

Am             C

for what seems like days,

Dm          G

I come from the sinkholes, 

C               Am

collapsed under this weight.

Am         G

I know not your sorrow,

Am         C

but I know mine,

Dm

So say you'll stay

G                 Am

and dance with me tonight.



Am          G

Tomorrow we might wake 

C               Am

in solitude and silence

F               C

I will give you everything

G                 Am

if only you would have me.



F                C

Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,

F                     Am

Our hands will quiver caked with soil,

F                      C

Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,

C

But tonight we dance,

Am

But tonight we dance



Solo



F             G

Am         G

I know not your sorrow,

Dm

So say you'll stay

G                 Am
