   Em                        
 Whalebones and crosses stand 
                      B7sus2
against the Arctic sky
      Em                   
 The wind blows through the 
                      B7sus2
graveyard where our fallen fathers 
lie
Em                  C            
 Eternal snow that covers them, 
     G             A
the shadows of the sun
      D        A     Bm      F#m
 The mighty struggle on the 
     F#7sus4 F#7     Bm    Em
seas, A way of  life is run

       Em

 How the hunter loved the hunted, 
          B7sus2
how the night becomes the day
      Em            C          
 The circle of the mighty spirit 
   G               A
keeps us in its fold
      D        A      Bm    F#m 
 The warmth of understanding, 
      F#7sus4 F#7             Bm
like a light  shot through the cold

        G             A           
 Then bring to me my people, touch
       Bm               C#7sus4 C#7
 them with your loving hands
  F#                E             
 Lead them from confusion, lead 
    Eb            Bb
them back unto the land
        C#sus4   C#sus2    
 For a sickness seems to

block their path, it clouds my

 peoples' eyes
       Bbm  Fm       F#          
 The promise that an idle truth 
     F7sus4 F7     Bbm    Bm Em
will reap a golden lie

 Whalebones and crosses stand 
                      B7sus2
against the Arctic sky
      Em                   
 The wind blows through the 
                      B7sus2
graveyard where our fallen fathers 
lie
Em                    C          
 The timeless hunt a journey back
      G                 A
 to what we once came from
     D      A      Bm   F#m 
 Compassion and nobility 
F#7sus4   F#7      Bm
beneath the midnight sun
      D        A     Bm      F#m
 The mighty struggle of the
