Verse:
[E] Born from the night in the roaring w[Cm]ind
Cast out of the s[A]hadows by an unknown ha[E]nd
Warmed by the light of these falling [Cm]limbs
Drunk on the s[A]adness of a universe unman[E]ned
Across the water she clings to m[Cm]e
and in the rising [A]calm I feel her at my si[E]de
My father's singing in the fallin' leaves[Cm]
about the complicated [A]beauty of a river run dr[E]y.
Refrain:
[Cm] Sit down by the f[A]ire
Sit down [E]by the fire
Verse:
[E] It's hard to say
but I think you'd bett[Cm]er
just say you don't l[A]ove me
you don't love me anym[E]ore
I been waiting in line
now I know I'll nev[Cm]er
Overcome this m[A]adness
if I don't know for sure[E]
Across the water she clings to me[Cm]
and in the light of d[A]awn
I see her at my sid[E]e
My father's singing in the fallin' leave[Cm]s
there's no way out of this old w[A]orld even if you try
