Verse 1
                      C 
Over the doors of day 
             D     G 
Here by this windowsill 
  Em                 Bm 
I watch the climbing light 
   C  G  C   G     D 
As early footsteps steal 
 C                G 
Enormous shadows away 
 
Verse 2
   ~  Em C         G 
Tenderly from this height 
  D          C 
I feel compassion come 
   D            C 
As all the city stirs 
        G    C  G  D 
And trembles in my room 
 
Verse 3
C                   G 
So from a stance of calm 
  C               G 
A stepping out of sleep 
   C            G 
My shadow once again 
   C  G   C  G   D    Em 
Disperses in the warm day 
         C          Bm 
With its lives more deep 
     C  D           G       Em 
Than any pleasure or pain 
         C          Bm 
With its lives more deep 
     C  D           G 
Than any pleasure or pain
