           Em                 C/G     Em
It was so late and she’d be sleeping

                     D/F#
He came through her home town

                            C/G
With the moonlight on the crossroads

                             G
And the green light shining down

         Em                    C/G     Em
And the bell at the railroad crossing

                   D/F#
And the horn from far away

                      C/G
And his Silver Eagle passing

                           (G)
Half a mile from where she lay
| G | C/G | D/F# Em | C/G | | G | C/G | G | C/G | | G | % |
        Em            C/G   Em
At his feet a sea of faces

                           D/F#
Make devotions with their love

                                  C/G   CMaj7/G  C/G
Clap their hands and plead their cases

                          G
Call for blessings from above

                  Em            C/G     Em
Like the rolling waves forever massing

                              D/F#
To crash and foam and creep away

                    C/G
And the Silver Eagle passing

                        (G)
Half a mile from where she lay
| G | C/G | D/F# Em | C/G | | Am7 | C/G | D/F# G | C/G | | G | C/G | G | C/G | | G | % |
             Em           C/G        Em
Road signs flow into the headlights

                        D/F#
Whisper names and fall behind

                            C/G      CMaj7/G
He finds some honor in the darkness

                              G
Hopes for grace and peace of mind

                  Em               C/G    Em
And he thinks of how they’d lay together

                                  D/F#
He’d run his fingers through her hair

                         C/G
And he wonders if she’ll ever

                          (G)
Come to know that he was there
