verse 1 
G                D/F#      Em 
I hear the drums echoing tonight 
             Am               G/B         C-- D 
But she only whispers of some quiet conversation 
G                 D/F#  Em 
She's coming on a 12:30 flight 
                    Am                   G/B            C-- D 
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me to salvation 
G            D/F#              Em 
I stopped an old man along the way 
               Am             G/B              C-- D 
Hoping to find some forgotten words or ancient melodies 
G            D/F#        Em 
He turned to me as if to say, 
                  Am                G/B  -  C  -  D 
'Hurry boys, it's waiting there for you!'
