F#mD/Dsus2 A
I never knew the dusk could seem so sad,
ADsus2C#mD
an empty aching in my soul.
F#mED/Dsus2 A
In this bright hour I speak your name in the wind,
EDsus2F#m
the shining world outlasts us all.
F#mD/Dsus2 A
Even the mountains seem to know you're gone,
ADsus2C#mD
the foothills shimmer where they stand.
F#mED/Dsus2 A
The sky is still and much too beautiful,
EDsus2F#m
and I am missing you again.
EDsus2A
Lift me over the San Gabriels,
F#mBm7E
leaning into the southern sky.
Bm/F#m DDsus2
The foothills burning in the afterglow,
EDsus2A
an angel fire passing by.
F#mD/Dsus2 A
I think of songs I might have sung to you,
ADsus2C#mD
the love I wanted you to hear.
F#mED/Dsus2 A
Everytime the blazing sun goes down,
EDsus2F#m
another promise disappears.
F#mD/Dsus2 A
I never knew the dusk could break my heart,
ADsus2C#mD
so much longing folding in,
F#mED/Dsus2 A
I'd give years away to have you here,
EDsus2F#m
you know I can't lose you again.
EDsus2A
Lift me over the San Gabriels,
F#mBm7E
leaning into the southern sky.
Bm/F#m DDsus2
A flight of angels must be in the wind,
EDsus2F#m
I know they'll pass this way tonight.
EDsus2A
Help me remember the San Gabriels,
F#mBm7E
the foothills burning in the light.
BmF#mDDsus2
Let my heart rise up to where you are,
EDsus2A
I long to be with you tonight.
EDsus2A
I long to be with you tonight,
EDsus2F#m
I long to be with you tonight
