Dust Of Daylight

Words and music by Son Volt from the 2009 album "American Central Dust."

Capo 2

        C                     F                C
Hand in hand there are angels that are holding warning signs
G                     G7                       C
Show you the way like teachers and prophets of doom
     C                  F                               C
Everyone has their idol there will always be a story to tell
G                    G7             C
The search goes on a balance in the final say

C                         F                  C
When you're lost in folly out of luck in the worst way
G                     G7                     C
Love is a fog and you stumble every step you make
F                                       C
The dust of daylight holds you down and makes you wait
G                     G7                     C
Love is a fog and you stumble every step you make
              C         F              C
There will be words and fault lines to fill the hours of the day
         G                          G7                             C
There are ways to buy trouble but a bail bondsman finds friends in jail
        C         F                               C
Time to leave now time to pack up all that you're leaving
     G                  G7                        C
Your contest's here but you'll be judged just the same

Repeat Chorus

F                                       C
The dust of daylight holds you down and makes you wait
G                     G7                     C
Love is a fog and you stumble every step you make

G                     C7                     C
Love is a fog and you stumble every step you make
