Nexus Dan Fogelberg
INTRO: (lengthy instrumental)
A[D]cross the vein of night there cuts, a [D7sus4]path of searing light
[G]Burning like a beacon on the [D]edges of our [A]sight
At the [D]point of total darkness and the [D7sus4]lights divine divide
A [G]soul can let its shadow stretch and [D]land on either [A]side, either [D]side[A] [D] [A]
And [D]balanced on the precipice, the [D7sus4]moment must reveal
[G]Naked in the face of time, our [D]race within the [A]wheel
As we [D]hang beneath the heavens, and we [D7sus4]hover over hell
Our [G]hearts become the instruments, we [D]learn to play so [A]well
CHORUS:
So [D]wealthy the spirit, that [G]knows its own [A]flight
[D]Stealthy the hunter, who [G]slays his own [A]fright
[D]Blessed the traveller, who [G]journeys the [A]length of the [D]light[A] [D] [A] [D]
Outside the pull of gravity, be[D7sus4]yond the spectral veil
With[G]in our careful reasoning, we[D] search to no a[A]vail
For the [D]constant in the chaos, for the [D7sus4]fulcrum in the void
[G]Following a destiny, our [D]steps cannot a[A]vo[D]id[A] [D] [A]
A[D]cross the vein of night there cuts, a [D7sus4]path of searing light
[G]Burning like a beacon on the [D]edges of our [A]sight
At the [D]point of total darkness and the [D7sus4]lights divine divide
A [G]soul can let its shadow stretch and [D]land on either [A]side
CHORUS:
[D]wealthy the spirit, that [G]knows its own [A]flight
[D]Stealthy the hunter, who [G]slays his own [A]fright
[D]Blessed the traveller, who [G]journeys the [A]length of the [D]light
INSTRUMENTAL: (A really long one)
[D]In a spiral never-ending, are we [D7sus4]drawn toward the source
[G]Spinning at the mercy of an [D]unrelenting [A]force
So we [D]stare into the emptiness and [D7sus4]fall beneath the weight
[G]Circling the [D]Nexus in a fevered dance with [A]fate
CHORUS:
[D]Wealthy the spirit, that [G]knows its own [A]flight
[D]Stealthy the hunter, who [G]slays his own [A]fright
[D]Blessed the traveller, who [G]journeys the [A]length of the [D]light
