[Intro]
    D
The days
        Am
Passing days

Dm F


[Verse 1]
          C
I see the steeple
                 Am
And trace to the spire
        Dm
And the sunset

Deep in regret
           F
Phoenix in final fire


[Verse 2]
        C
And the time stops
          F
Rush hour traffic slows
       Dm
And my heart starts

Beating this dark
            F
Through old flesh and cold bone


[Chorus 1]
                 G           F
And I long to be carried on
                G           F
Just once to be lifted strong
           G
Out of the loneliness

And the emptiness
       C
Of the days
        Am
The days
        Dm7    Dm
Passing days
F
Days


[Verse 3]
                      C
I remember I had your love once
          Am
Seized my body whole
           Dm
And in our first dance

I thought by chance
        F
God had matched my soul
                     C
But time brought its travelling
                 Am
Its distance and solitude
            Dm
And in that travelling

My self damaging
               F
I took my love far, far from you


[Chorus 2]

But don't you
           G          F
Long to be carried on
                  G             F
Once more I could lift you strong
           G
Out of the loneliness

And the emptiness
       C
Of the days
        Am
Passing days
        Dm7    Dm

Days


[Chorus 3]

Tell me
                     G
Have we gone too far?
                        F
Or did we get too close?

You've no father
        G
I've no son
                    F
But when we come ghost
                 G
I promise I will meet you

I will meet you
                  C
At the end of the days
    Am
The days
        Dm    F
Passing days


[Outro]
                                    C
Won't you meet me at the end of the days?
