          E6       A/E     Bm7
When the dragons grow too mighty
    E6        A/E     D
To slay with pen or sword
        E6   A/E    Bm7
I grow weary of the battle
         E6     A/E    C#m/E
And the storm I walk toward
     Em             D
When all around is madness
            F#7              Bm
And there's no safe port in view
   Em                   D
I long to turn my path homeward
   F#m7             Esus4 E
To stop a while with you

When life becomes as barren
And as cold as winter skies
There's a beacon in the darkness
In a distant pair of eyes
In vain to search for order
And in vain to search for truth
But these things can still be given
Your love has shown me proof
