Am           C      D    G       Am
Ask not the sun   wh-y-y-y she sets
C        D           G      Am
Why she shrouds her light away
F          Am          C       D
Or why she hides her glowing gaze
      Am                           D
When night turns crimson gold to grey

Am           D         F       Am
 For silent falls the guilty sun   
           C         Em
As day to dark does turn
Am           D        F          Am
One simple truth she dare not speak:
     C        Am              D
Her light can only blind and burn

Am                D
No mercy for the guilty
      C                 F
Bring down their lying sun
Am        D      C*
Blood so silver black by night
C                 Am    D
Upon their faces pale white

D*                     Am*
Cruel moon, bring the   end
   F*         Am*   C*     G*
The dawn will never rise again
