E A E G B7 E
[Verso 1]
A
Oh, archer with your bowstring tight
F#m
Won't you let fly with your shaft of light
B
Are you hunting your quarry now?
Dm
Are you leaving me, babe, leaving anyhow?
A
But I will remember you when the rain pours down
C#m
And I see you standing there in your bright blue gown
G B
Fyodor's there, still he doesn't care
E
You're gone
Instrumental
D E x3
[Verso 2]
A
Tell me you don't want to travel
F#m
To go back amidst the noise and babble
B
But you hear me when I tell you that
Dm
You know it won't be so long, babe You know you're coming back
A
And I'll wait right here till the sky is clear
C#m
And I'll keep looking into that endless sphere
G
And then you're gonna know
B E
There really wasn't nothing to fear
Instrumental
D E x3
[Verso 3]
A
So don't cry, baby, in the dark of night When you know I ain't there to hold you tight
F#m
And I can't answer any of your questing glances
B
Like when we woke up in the morning And we saw the dawn was storming
Dm
And the clouds were there love Outside the window so fair
A
And the sun came rising, it was surprising
C#m
Cast out all your dark surmising
G B
And then the car came, you spoke my name
E
And left me
Instrumental
D E x3
[Verso 4]
A
But I'm not alone on this earth so fair There's something else beside me here
F#m
Something keeps me ever looking forward
B
And it's brighter than the sunlight And it's purer than the moonlight
Dm
And it's drawing me toward it Like a moth out of the night
A
And I know I'll arrive where there ain't no time
C#m
Non dimensional plane of joy sublime
G B
Keep on being free, Lord, it's gotta be
E
Infinity, hey
