[Verse]

Am F/A G/A Am
Cold as steel, the darkness waits its hour will come
Am F/A G/A Am
A cry of fear from our children worshipping the sun
Am F/A G/A Am
Mother nature’s black revenge on those who wasted her life
Am F/A G/A Am
War babies in the garden of Eden shall turn our ashes to ice

[Chorus]

E G A
Sunrise has gone freezing up the fires
E
Sunrise has gone
G D
Numbing our desires

Am F/A G/A

Am Am F/A G/A
Sunrise has gone
Am
Sunrise has gone

[Verse 2]

Am F/A G/A Am
Around the world the people stop with terror stricken eyes
Am F/A G/A Am
A shadow cast upon them all to crush them like a fly
Am F/A G/A Am
In the icy rain and whiplashed seas, there’s nowhere left to run
Am F/A G/A Am
The hammer blows of winter fall like a hurricane

[Chorus 2]

E G A
Sunrise has gone freezing up the fires
E
Sunrise has gone
G D
Numbing our desires

[Bridge]

Am G
Around the world the nations wait
C D
For some wise word from their leading light
F G Am G
You know it’s not only madmen who listen to fools
Am G
“Is this the end?” the millions cried
C D
Clutching their riches as they died
F G
Those who survive must weather the storm

[Bridge 2]

Dm Am C G
Gone are the days when man looked down
Dm Am C G
They’ve taken away his sacred crown
Dm Am C G
To be so free, it took so long
Dm Am C G
It’s not journey’s end, it’s just begun
