C#m
Long shadows
B
Bright light
      A
That falls to the front
        B
From a darkness behind

There is no end
To this mountain top
Inside these stones
Only peace will we find

Inside out
We're all part of the stone
That makes up the mountain
And harbours the bones

The bones of angels
That showed us the way
You can feel them at night
While they sleep through the day

E A  B       E     A
The bones of angels
     B       E     A
The bones of angels
     B       E     A B E
The bones of angels

  E     A         B
Together we will be
   E   A         B
Forever we will see
E
I see you
    A      B
And I see me
         E            A
And the bones of angels
         B       E     A
And the bones of angels
         B       E     A
And the bones of angels
