  Am F    [2x]

  ------------

  

  Am                  F

     Lying all night, screaming in pain

  Am                             F

     Defending the cross in the Belfast rain

  C            G             F             G

     But Billy saw me at the end of the street

          C           G           F                G

     So I   lit up my torch and embraced him with heat

  

  

  Am                      F

     ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? 340 AD

  Am                         F

     Threw me in a quarry no way to get free

  C              G       F           G

     I called on Hank to give me my life

            C               G           F        G

     And he   came on his black horse Obsidian Knife

   

  

  Am                              F

     It happened one night, I was lying in bed

  Am                   F

     Eyes wide open, I could have been dead

  C           G             F              G

     Sky lady came with her eyes shining brightly

             C               G                 F           G

     And the   bears and the billies and the police took flight

  

  

  Am                                     F

     But I called them all back, and the sky lady too

  Am                                     F

     The bears and the billies and the police, me and you

  C          G        F          G

     We laid down our bombs and bows

         C                G                F         G

     And   drank to their health on the Anatolian plateau

  

  

  Am                      F

     From New Scotland to Calgary

  Am                        F

     The geese are high and so are we

  C           G    F       G

     We don't even need a map

  C                G             F        G

     We're way too fast for the highway trap

  

  

  Am                      F

     So hit the road, and shine a light

  Am                               F

     I think we're going to find a path tonight

  C           G            F        G

     Shooting star and the moon is bad

              C           G         F       G

     It's the   best damn omen that we ever had
