[Verse]
Gm            F
On the way to sacred shores
    Cm                 Eb             Gm
And in the arms of the life that we adore
Gm                F
Moonlight shows a white design
            Cm                      Eb                  Gm
That’s been waiting for a chance to seize the soul once more

                      Cm              Bbm F
(Sweet lad, o come and join me, do!)
     Eb
On a road
                                      Bbm F
(Such pretty games I will play with you)
         Gm
Changing course

Gm                      F
Lightning strikes where we depart
   Cm                 Eb                 Gm
An eerie voice as the night embraced the heart
           F                    Cm
Resonating from the life and is moving on
           Eb             Gm
To the new windows of the soul

Gm
(Will you, sweet lad, come along with me?)
Bb             F              Eb
  My daughters shall care for you tenderly”
Eb   F   Gm
Hear his mystic voice
Gm                                                Eb Bb F
“I love you, for your comeliness charms me, my boy!
F
(And if you’re not willing, my force I’ll employ)
   Cm    Dm Eb   F    Am   G
He feeds on stainless souls

Am G x3

[Chorus]
        F
We are struck in the night
        F
Ancient power will strike
     F/G Am
Feel the fire

        Em
Now run into his arms
           Em
Leave your shelter behind
       G
We are going to fly

F
Higher than high
        F
We will take on the sky
     G  Am
Feel my senses
  G
United by the night

[Verse]
Am                  G
   Now it’s time to close the door
    Dm             F  G  Am C
And open up like before
N.C.                Am
 New windows of the soul
C  G F      F  G    Am
        The silence of the void
C G Dm    Dm E     F    G   Am
        A father’s life destroyed

[Chorus]
Am
(Stuck in the night)
Am
(Ancient power will strike)
Am
(Feel the fire)
C    G F
Burn inside

(Run into my arms)

(Leave your shelter behind)

        F  G     Am
(We are going to fly)
Am
See us fly
Am
And hear our cry
      C   G  Dm
We’re out of sight
Dm
(Higher than high we will)
Dm
(Take on the sky)
Dm
(Feel my senses)
C         G
(Out of my sight)
         Dm
(But live on my mind)
    Dm Em   F  G   Am
New windows of our soul
