End Of The Day Chords & Lyrics - Mark Erelli

[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE]
Trees grow [D]tall [Em]
Leaves [Bm]fall [F]
Flowers [A7]wither and [G]die
The music [D]stops [Em]
The curtains [Bm]drop [C]
The [Cm]river rolls on [G]by

[VERSE]
The [C]monarchs go
To [G]Mexico
[C]How do they [G]know the [F]way [C]
Each [G]question [Bm]leads
To [Cm]more myste[Bm]ries [Am]
At the [D]end of the [G]day

[VERSE]
Thunder [D]booms [Em]
Clouds hide the [Bm]moon [F]
No sign of [A7]heaven’s blue [G]dome
It’s just as [D]dark [Em]
And raining just as [Bm]hard [C]
When I [Cm]wake up far from [G]home

[VERSE]
A [C]lonesome serenade
[G]Whining down the grade
Re[C]minds me [G]I can never [F]stay[C] ...
Another [G]trial, another [Bm]test
[Cm]Miles before I [Bm]rest [Am]
At the [D]end of the [G]day

[VERSE]
I’ve left a [D]wake of broken [Em]hearts
I don’t even [Bm]know where to [F]start
I’m lost in the [A7]forest of re[G]grets
Following the [D]crumbs [Em]
Trying to undo [Bm]all I’ve [C]done
Somehow I [Cm]can’t retrace my [G]steps

[VERSE]
[C]Naked as a bone
Don’t [G]leave me here all alone
[C]With this [G]hollow heart of [F]clay [C]
Ain’t [G]everyone de[Bm]vout
[Cm]When the [Bm]sand is running [Am]out
At the [D]end of the [G]day

[VERSE]
Campfire [D]towns [Em]
Smouldering on the [Bm]ground [F]
With their [A7]embers all a[G]glow
You’re somewhere down there I [D]guess [Em]
The moonlight on your [Bm]breast [C]
Blue as the [Cm]new fallen [G]snow

[VERSE]
I [C]do what I do
[G]You do too
[C]That’s just the [G]price that we [F]pay [C]
[G]Stronger for our [Bm]scars
And [Cm]wiser by [Bm]far [Am]
At the [D]end of the [G]day
