Em G The car crunches gravel D A And the wind licks at you Em G This dark spell you're under D A Has you dumbstruck by the gate It hurts every muscle Just to walk back to the house Now this home that you both made It looks haunted from the yard Chorus: Em G D You can hear those distant bells A Em And you know they'll never leave G D It's like your church is crying out A Em Like the wolf calls to her young And the dark never enters But it also never leaves And this spark that he gave you Is just an ember all but out If he'd one eye on the exit Oh you never would have known Until he drove off in the darkness Like some slowly fading song Chorus - x2 | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA ![]() D ![]() Em ![]() G ![]() Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
