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.
