In my hands I hold the ashes
G_____Em________________G
In my veins black pitch runs
G_____C______________Em
In my chest the fire catches
Em____D_____________C
In my way a setting sun


Em_________________G
Dark clouds gather round me
G______Em______________G
To the West my soul is bound
G__________C___________Em
But I will go on ahead free
Em_________D_______________C
There is a light yet to be found


Em____________D_____C______G
The last pale light in the west
Em____________D_____C______G
The last pale light in the west

And I ask for no redemption
G_______Em______________G
In this cold and barren place
G_______C____________Em
Still I see faint reflection
Em________D___________C
And so by it guide my way


Em____________D_____C______G
The last pale light in the west

The last pale light in the west
