AT THE EDGE OF THE ARCTIC

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


               Am     Esus4/B     Am/C  Dm
           I.  at the edge of the arc - tic
               F              G                Am - Esus4/B - Am/C - Am/E
               is a terrible, jagged, icy coastline.
               F                G
               between love and true desolation
               F        G                    Am - Esus4/B - Am/C - Am/E
               is a sea one man can sail on alone.
               F              G
               for when there is a half sun
               F           G
               over on the left horizon,
               F                G
               and the sad snow falling on
               Fmaj7                 G
               still sleepers to the right,
               Fmaj7               G
               sad dreamers in the night,

               who's to say
               Fmaj7
               whether the half sun
               G
               shall become full?
                  Fmaj7              G
               or whether it come to null?
                   Fmaj7
               and whether the sleepers
               G
               are to wake
               Fmaj7     G
               or yet to dream?


               Am     Esus4/B     Am/C  Dm
      CHORUS:  at the edge of the arc - tic.
               Am     Esus4/B     Am/C  Dm
               at the edge of the arc - tic.
               Am     Esus4/B     Am/C  Dm
               at the edge of the arc - tic.
               Am     Esus4/B     C     Dm
               at the edge of the arc - tic.



INSTRUMENTAL:  Fmaj7 - G  (4 times)



               Am     Esus4/B     Am/C  Dm
          II.  at the edge of the arc - tic,
               F                  G
               midnight sun is becoming
                        Am - Esus4/B - Am/C - Am/E
               noontime dark.
               F               G
               between day and night is a season.
                  F
               we dream of each other,
                   G                      Am - Esus4/B - Am/C - Am/E
               not knowing we lie side-by-side.
               Fmaj7                G
               blind visions will unite
               Fmaj7               G
               sad dreamers in the night.

               and who's to say
               Fmaj7
               whether the sleepers
               G
               are to wake?
               Fmaj7     G
               or yet to dream?


INSTRUMENTAL:  Fmaj7 - G  (2 times)


               Fmaj7               G
               blind visions will unite
               Fmaj7               G
               sad dreamers in the night.
