Em The sun is rising G My shadow is getting shorter C Iʼm chasing the horizon G Trying to cross that border. Em Been to all the time zones G From the Poles to the tropics C Iʼm chasing the horizon G Feeling so myopic. Em G Twenty five thousand miles multiplied several times C G Thatʼs the length of my way full of precipices and heights, Em Falls and climbs, good signs, C Strange harbingers and bad prophets G My footprints cover the planet C From the Poles to the tropics. Em I keep on wandering like Ahasuerus C My trip is hazardous. G C The sun is rising again like Saint Lazarus Em And as itʼs rising G My shadow is getting shorter C Iʼm chasing the horizon G Trying to cross that border... Chorus: Em ...But the faster I try to run G The farther away it gets. C Forgot where the start was. G F# Canʼt see where Iʼm going. Em This work will never be done G And it makes no other sense. C The start and the finish G F# Are two sides of the same coin. Em The sun is dying C The dark is getting stronger G I’m chasing the horizon C Trying to cross that border Em Realistic imagination C Spiritually captivated G Lost in your creation C My existence uncomplicated Em C The universe is aligned, purposefully designed G Guiding me through the nights. C The great unknown to the great divide Em C I realize. They’ve lied! The sign is illuminated. G Finding significance C Again spiritually captivated Em Even if they say I’ve imagined this C Then who can fathom this? G G I’ve been to the end of the world and back again Em So I’ll keep trying C When the dark is getting stronger G To capture the horizon C Even if I never cross that border Chorus: Em ...But the faster I try to run G The farther away it gets. C Forgot where the start was. G F# Canʼt see where Iʼm going. Em This work will never be done G And it makes no other sense. C The start and the finish G F# Are two sides of the same coin.
