G# B ( h ) C#m G#
breathe deep and easy , swallow this pride .
G# B ( h ) C#m G#
stare at my shaking hands through bone dry , blood shot eyes .
Bm ( hm )
clock strip the hours , i count the miles .
F# A#m
will you be there waiting , awake until sunrise .

chorus
Em F#
ive traveled in darkness , for what seems like days ,
Bm ( hm ) F# A#m G#
i come from the sinkholes , collapsed under this weight .

i know not your sorrow , but i know mine ,
h ( B ) hm ( Bm ) G#
so say you’ll stay and dance with me tonight .

verse 2 ( the same like verse 1 ) :
in the glow of twilight , our world is finally calm .
i felt it complete me , when the stars give way to dawn .
a language universal , but i speak not its tongue .
is this a night that spins forever , or a dawn that never comes .

chorus ( please look up )
ive traveled in darkness , for what seems like days ,
i come from the sinkholes , collapsed under this weight .
i know not your sorrow , but i know mine ,
so say you’ll stay and dance with me tonight .

G# Em7 h ( B ) D#m
tomorrow we might wake in solitude and silence
G# Em7 h ( B ) D#m
i will give you everything if only you would have me
G# Em7 h ( B )
tomorrow we will sweat and toil ,
D#m G# Em7 hm ( Bm )
our hands will quiver caked with soil ,
F# G# Em7 hm ( Bm )
tomorrow we’ll give it one last chance ,
G#
but tonight we dance ,
G#
but tonight we dance

chorus ( 1st chorus )
and for this , i travel in darkness , for what seems like days ,
i come from the sinkholes , collapsed under this weight .
i know not your sorrow , but i know mine ,
just say you’ll stay and dance with me tonight .

end : G#
