Intro: C
I light a candle in your name
FC
Long past midnight, memories bright in the freeze frame
F ~ ~ ~ G
And I'm asking myself why
C
I see you at the Marriott
FC
Funny little grin, driving those drums like a chariot
F ~ ~ ~ G
Did it hurt too much to try?
Chorus:
F
Woody, you were my hero
CFA shoulder to cry on when I bottomed out at ze__ro
CG
And in the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
FC
Hard times in Babylon
O.K. so you had to go
FC
Take a walk on the wild side, down to the valley of the shadow
F ~ ~ ~ G
But it just don't seem like you
C
Woody, you could have called out
FC
There's not a man or woman gathered here tonight in the big house
F ~ ~ ~ G
Who wouldn't run to pull you through
Chorus:
F
An incident so grievous
CF
Twenty years ago, who thought this was the way that you will leave us
CG
In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
FC
Hard times in Babylon
Bridge:
F
Got to hang together when the air's this thin
Hand out the masks for the oxygen
AmGF
Live for something
We're coming upon a time in our lives
Am
When the little dream lives but the big dream dies
GF
Not for nothing
AmGF
Not for nothing
Instrumental: CFCF ~ ~ ~ GChorus:
F
I know that love don't end
CF
Nothing I can do is gonna bring you back or let me see you again
CG
And in the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
FCF
Hard times in Babylon
CG
In the hour of the wolf, just before the dawn
FC
Hard times in Babylon
