[Intro] E A E A E A Emaj7 A [Verse 1]
E             A        E             A
Shipmates and cheyenne, raindrops and crying

          E            A        Emaj7  A
Haunt the dreams of an old, old man.

E           A             E              A
Candles and church bells, laughter and farewells

E              A                 E   A
Revolve in his thoughts like the wind.
[Verse 2]
E             A          E            A
Stallions and blizzards, steelies and lizards

E            A          Emaj7   A
Drift in the meadows of time.

   E        A               E            A
No sense of progression, of age and direction,

   E         A        E    E7
No meter, no form, no rhyme.
[Chorus 1]
A                     G#m
I'll hold me one, just one rising sun

F#m7       B7           E   E7
long after daylight is gone.

A                     G#m         A
I'll hold me one, one more rising sun

        F#m          B7          E
Till my daylight and darkness is done.
[Verse 3]
E            A          E          A
Kingdoms and cupboards, losers and lovers

    E           A          Emaj7   A
And evenings of blackberry wine.

E            A         E         A
Falling like sand, the memory of hands

     E           A            E    E7
With kisses, and whispers and sighs.
[Chorus 2]
A                     G#m
I'll hold me one, just one rising sun

F#m7       B7           E
long after daylight is gone.

A                     G#m
I'll hold me one, one more rising sun

        F#m          B7          E   E7
Till my daylight and darkness is done.

A                     G#m         A
I'll hold me one, one more rising sun

        F#m          B7          E
Till my daylight and darkness is done.
[Outro] E Emaj7 E Emaj7 B E
