El Shaday

C                  F    C       F C
And the light of a fading star
C                F C            
Is what you were, is what you 
        F C
are
C                  F    C       
Like the glow that christens the
        F C
 moon
C                  F C          
You shone too soon, you shone 
        F C
too soon

G
Oh when will this war be over?
C
And the madness leaves the air
G
This brick that's found between us
C
And the pulling of the hair

F               G
But if there's a reason
Am              G
I don't need to know right now

And the light of a fading star
Is what you were, is what you are
Like the glow that christens the 
moon
You shone too soon, you shone too 
soon

Volunteers are soon forgotten
And many more of us shall die
The sick still feed the hungry
And the last battle song has cried

But if there's a reason
I don't need to know right now

And the light of a fading star
Is what you were, is what you are
Like the glow that christens the 
moon
You shone too soon, you shone too 
soon

Am      G       C
Oh and I always thought
Am      G       C
That you, you wanted me
Am      G       C       F
Oh and I always thought some how
F       G       Am
That you, you wanted me

Ahhh, but if there's a reason
I don't need to know right now
'Cause beyond the pale eyes' evening
And the shadow of the cloud

And the light of a fading star
Is what you were, is what you are
Like the glow that christens the 
moon
You shone too soon, you shone too 
soon

And the light of a fading star
Is what you were, is what you are
Like the glow that christens the 
moon
You shone too soon, you shone too 
soon
