Standard (EADGBE)

All the hopes that you've been holding onto for so long

 And the fires you've been chasing down now all are gone

 I can tell you are a long way from the one you love

 Oh the night it takes so long to fall

 Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night

 I will hide away my fortunate son

 He's soon to fall if I let him go

 But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one

No no

 Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night

 I will hide away my fortunate son

 He's soon to fall if I let him go

 But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one

No no

Smoke and shadows following me

 To my heart like a pauper carrying stone

 I can still not believe the words that you sing

So heavy are your own

Ohhhhhh

All my I've spent wandering the farthest south

 Oh that weathervane is holding out to hold me down

 And a heart like yours should never have to go without

 But sometimes it takes the night to fall

 Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night

 I will hide away my fortunate son

 He's soon to fall if I let him go

 But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one

No you can never have my fortunate son

No no
