Intro

F#m     A   E  

F#m                       A         E
The call of the night came and we called it a day
F#m                    A     E              
The howling at midnight had called me away
F#m                A        E                  
Out in the moonlight on a half-bended knee
F#m                        A         E  
I said, oh now, cousin, hey, what’s happened to me

F#m               A   E                    F#m
All of the colors I couldn’t believe
                          A              E                  F#m
I called out, now cousin, hey, are you foolin’ with me?
                    A       E            F#m
All of the pleasures now avoiding me
              A   E
All the music now boring to me

B         A         E        
Oh it’s unbearable then 
B                       A         E        
To find you feeling so terrible, friend
B                          A            E    
I know you were chasing it, ah well you had to have been
F#m                A       E                           
So holy and wasted, like a prayer in the wind

F#m                     A  E
Out of my shoes I stepped clear of the trees
F#m                  A      E
Out on the dunes among the towering reeds
F#m                 A   E
Out in the blue we both bowed in the breeze
F#m             A  E
All the music now foreign to me

B         A         E        
Oh it’s unbearable then 
B                       A         E        
To find you feeling so terrible, friend
B                          A            E    
I know you were chasing it, ah well you had to have been
F#m                A       E                           
So holy and wasted, like a prayer in the wind
