        D    Cadd9     G      Asus4
And the moon,   mirror of the sun,

G         F       D/F#
Nightlight of the world

        D      Cadd9  G       Asus4
Drags a blanket    of cooling sea,

Across the sand unfurls

        D   Cadd9       G        Asus4
In the night   when the stars provide

  G          F      D/F#
A reason for man to strive

   F#      G          A     Asus4 A
He reasons that's the reason

Let the stars in the firmament
Remain as bait
For the people whose only wish
Is to leave their home, let them wait
Their impatience is only matched
By a misunderstanding of their fate
Let them get their
Priorities straight
