Bm        A       E
Red, red desert, heal our blues
Bm        A          E
I'd dive deeper for you
Bm       A          E
What a blessing to feel your love
Bm        A            E
Twilight moments with you

Bm            A         E
I’ve been asleep so long, I'm so far away
Bm         A             E
Visions I see are strong, I hear what they say
           Bm                         A
Won't you leave all your fears at the edge of the world?
      E
I’ll tell you again like I told you before
Bm           A           E
I've been asleep so long, wasting away

                    G
Tell me, would you pack up all your bags,
stay true to North?
Em
You're the only one I'd do this for

Chorus

It doesn't take too long (Ah) to heal and replace (Ah)
The demons we're running from (Ah), they're begging to stay

Tell me, would you pack up all your bags, stay true to North?
You’re the only one I’d do this for

Chorus

Bm  E Bm E
Red
Bm  E Bm E

Red, red
Bm    E Bm E
Red, red

Chorus:
Red, red desert, heal our blues
I’d dive deeper for you
(Dive in deeper for you, dive in deeper for you)
What a blessing to feel your love
Twilight moments with you
(All these moments with you, all these moments with you)

G
Pack up all your bags, stay true to North
Em
You're the only one I'd do this for
Red, red desert, heal our blues
I'd dive deeper for you
