The Pogues - Tombstone: chords

Am                      G
The night is dark, the moon is full
  Am         G         Am
Across the blood red plain
               G
Every step and every breath
 Am               G
Brings me nearer home
     Em              Am
The spirits watch me on my way
      Em            Am
They whisper on the wind
                         G
And when the dawn lights up the sky
      Am     G    Am
I'll see my land again

A hot wind blows the scrub and dust
Across the barren land
The trees stand bare like skeletons
The mountains all torn down
Oh, the water holes are dry as bones
No birds are singing now
And far away, a city stands
Tombstones against the sky

Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
