[Intro] Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 [Verse] Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 Glistening nighttime dew, and she is walking with me. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 From the house of red, I hear a child crying. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 Foxes heading home, their prey hangs from their jaws. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 And the forest knows, but it won’t share the secret. [Chorus] Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 When the king takes sides, F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Leaving moral minds; soldiers take their share. F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Nighthawks seem to sense that now is the time. F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Deep inside them burns the raging fire of life. F#m9 He'll take back what he owns. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 [Verse] Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 Death cannot take hold, if I can keep momentum. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 Fortres-ses of stone, turn into crystal tears Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 Soothed by southern winds; I’ve found my strength now. Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 F#m9 And no- body knows, and we must keep their secret. [Chorus] Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 When the king takes sides, F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Leaving moral minds; soldiers take their share. F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Nighthawks seem to sense that now is the time. F#m9 Amaj7/E B6 C#m7 Deep inside them burns the raging fire of life. F#m9 He'll take back what he owns.
