All Souls Night
Capo: 5th Fret
[Verse]
A5 G
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside
F Em D
Figures dance around and around
A5 G
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
F Em D
Moving to the pagan sound.
[Verse]
A5 G
Somewhere in a hidden memory
F Em D
Images float before my eyes
A5 G
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
F Em D
And dancing till the next sunrise.
[Chorus]
Am Em
I can see lights in the distance
C G Am Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Am Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
C G D
A waltz on All Souls Night.
[Verse]
A5 G
Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows
F Em D
Held up tall as the flames leap high
A5 G
The green knight holds the holly bush
F Em D
To mark where the old year passes by.
[Chorus]
Am Em
I can see lights in the distance
C G Am Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Am Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
C G F
A waltz on All Souls Night.
[Verse]
A5 G
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside
F Em D
Figures dance around and around
A5 G
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
F Em D
Moving to the pagan sound.
[Verse]
A5 G
Standing on the bridge that crosses
F Em D
The river that goes out to the sea
A5 G
The wind is full of a thousand voices
F Em D
They pass by the bridge and me.
[Chorus]
Am Em
I can see lights in the distance
C G Am Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Am Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
C G Am D
A waltz on All Souls Night.
Am Em
I can see lights in the distance
C G Am Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Am Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
