Hard Road

Dm

[Chorus]

Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well

[Verse 1]

Dm
The sea came in and washed me out
Dm
The way was carved in ice
C
The tokens of a buried past
F                 C
The shavings of a heavy life
Dm
The wind blows each and every way
Dm
It's not for me, my heart, to steer
C
I cast up what I have each day
F                   C
The river flows the whole long year

[Chorus]

Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky

        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well

[Verse 2]

Dm
The fires moved my heart so far
Dm
Now colours can't be seen
C
The distant call of far-off stars
F                  C
Haunting o'er what might have been
Dm
And all, an ending was begun
Dm
Come with me 'cross the care-trod floor
C
Come with me to the holy song
F                        C
And with time's passing, to the core

[Chorus]

Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well

[Verse 3]

Dm
She knows how and she knows when
F                     C
She's born to die and live and again
Dm
She goes from moor to build a nest
F                        C
She knows the dance that burns her best
Dm
From the ashes, fair to share
F                    C
The purest sounds to leaden heads

Dm
Sung from her best and bends the old trees
F                 C
Wingèd wind songs sung so holy

[Chorus]

Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love

Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
Dm                  F
Hard road under the night sky
        C                     Dm
Keep on travelling, fare thee well my love
