D            G                 D             G
Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hands
D             G                 A              E
and soldiers coming home like shadows turning red
D         G                   D              G
When the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me
D             G             Bm              E
I'll be your homing angel, I'll be in your head

Chorus:
                Em             D                 A
Because you're lonely in your nightmare, let me in
             Em                D             A
And there's heat beneath your winter, let me in

I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb
And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin
Please tread gently on the ground
when all around you earth turns to fire
Only get a second chance when danger's on the wind

Chorus

Must be lucky weather when you find
the kind of wind that you need
Come on show me all the light and shade that made your name
I know you've got it in your head I've seen that look before
You've built your refuge turns you captive all the same

Chorus - x2
