Intro: Em  C

     Em       C     Em          CThis darkness would eclipse our will
  Em        C       Em         Ca cold wind blows across these hills
  Em       C           Em        Ca swinging gaze from a hangman's tree
  Em          C              Em      Ca crow's nest view of what's left to see


    D                                        Cthe light that's formed of saints return the silence to the snow
D                                 Cstill beneath the craters waiting for this time to grow


   Cm      Amso hold on hold tight
Em   Bm       Cm      Am    Emopen daylight we will over--come


 Em(cont)        C        Em      C         Em    Cso put away your fear the morning star will soon appear
    Em       C      Em        Cand bring an end to this dark night
    Em      C               Em       Cand we must run if we're to meet the light


Bm                              C   watered by the blood of martyrs blessed and blind as sons and daughters
D                  Em       Csleep with one eye open and live with both eyes shut
         Bm                                    Cso let's find the place where sight begins and see the things that we saw when our
D                    Em              Ceyes were bright and wet against the light
        D                  Em              Clet our eyes be bright and wet against the light


    Cm      Am   and hold on hold tight
Em   Bm       Cm      Am    Em  (pull off/hammer on the D string)open daylight we will over--come

Cm   Am        Em       G#mopen your eyes over the new sight
Cm      Am       Emfly the flags of dawn
