Into the West — Annie Lennox
Chords and lyrics for Into the West by Annie Lennox (key of C).
Verse 1
foreword:
Some corrections for the previous posted one,
especially Dm instead of F in the verses. This should work pretty well:
Verse 1
[C]Lay [G]down
[Dm]Your sweet and weary [Am]head
[C]Night is [G]falling,
[Dm]You have come to journey's [Am]end
[C]Sleep [G]now,
[Dm]And dream of the ones who came [Am]before
[C]They are [G]calling
[Dm]From across the distant [Am]shore
[Am]Why do you [C]weep
[F]What are these [G]tears upon your [Am]face
Soon you will [C]see
[F]All of your [G]fears will pass [Am]away
Safe in [C]my arms
[F]You're only [G]sleeping
Chorus
[C]What can you see
[F]On the horizon
[C]Why do the white gulls [G]call
[C]Across the sea
[F]A pale moon rises
[C]The ships have come to carry you [G]home
Verse 2
[Am]And all will [Em]turn
[Dm]To silver [G]glass
[Am]A light on the [C]water
[F]All souls [G]pass
[C]Hope [G]fades
Into [Dm]the world of [Am]night
[C]Through shadows [G]falling
Out of [Dm]memory and [Am]time
[C]Don't [G]say
We have [Dm]come now to the [Am]end
[C]White shores are [G]calling
[Dm] You and I will meet [Am]again
And you'll be [Am]here in my [C]arms
[F]Just [G]sleeping
Chorus
[C]What can you see
[F]On the horizon
[C]Why do the white gulls [G]call
[C]Across the sea
[F]A pale moon rises
[C]The ships have come to carry you [G]home
[Am]And all will [Em]turn
[Dm]To silver [G]glass
[Am]A light on the [C]water
[F]Grey ships[G] pass
Into the [C]west
