Verse

G#               G#aug

Breathe deep and easy,

F#            G#

swallow this pride.

E              F#

Stare at my shaking hands through

D#                   G#

bone dry, blood shot eyes.

G#                 G#aug

Clock strip the hours,

F#           G#

I count the miles.

E                  F#

Will you be there waiting,

D#              G#

awake until sunrise.



Chorus

Em                  F#

I’ve traveled in darkness,

D#                   G#

for what seems like days,

Em                   F#

I come from the sinkholes,

D#                    G#

collapsed under this weight.

Em                F#

I know not your sorrow,

D#           G#

 but I know mine,

E                       F#

So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.





Verse 2 (same as Verse 1)

G#              G#aug

In the glow of twilight,

F#                    G#

our world is finally calm.

E               F#

I felt it complete me,

D#                      G#

when the stars give way to dawn.

G#              G#aug

A language universal,

F#                  G#

but I speak not its tongue.

E                          F#

Is this a night that spins forever,

D#                    G#

or a dawn that never comes.



Chorus

Em                  F#

I’ve traveled in darkness,

D#                   G#

for what seems like days,

Em                   F#

I come from the sinkholes,

D#                    G#

collapsed under this weight.

Em                F#

I know not your sorrow,

D#           G#

 but I know mine,

E                       F#

So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight.

G#          E             B            D#

Tomorrow we might wake in solitude and silence

G#          E             B            D#

I will give you everything if only you would have me

G#                  E

Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,

B                      D#

Our hands will quiver caked with soil,

G#                         E

Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,

B

But tonight we dance,

D#

But tonight we dance
