Until the night is over

I'm just a station on your way

I know I am not your lover
[Chorus 1]
       Dadd4/A         Am7
Well, I lived with a child of snow

Dadd4/A        Am7
When I was a soldier

    Dadd4/A         Am7

Until the nights grew colder

She used to wear her hair like you

Dadd4       Amaj7   Dadd4
Except when she was sleeping

Dadd4        Amaj7 Dadd4    C
And then she'd weave it on a loom

 Dadd4     Amaj7     Dadd4
Of smoke and gold and breathing
[Chorus 2]
       Dadd4/A         Am7
And why are you so quiet now

Dadd4/A        Am7
Standing there in the doorway?

    Dadd4/A         Am7
You chose your journey long before

  Dadd4/A                Am7
You came upon this highway
