Capo: 5th Fret

All Souls Night 
 
Am               G
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside 
F             Em         D
Figures dance around and around 
Am                      G
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness 
F             Em    D
Moving to the pagan sound. 
 
Am                     G
Somewhere in a hidden memory 
F                  Em             D
Images float before my eyes 
Am                             G   
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
F                              Em         D 
And dancing till the next sunrise. 
 
Am                      Em
I can see lights in the distance 
C         G       Am           Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night 
Am                                Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing 
C       G            D
A waltz on All Souls Night. 
 
Am                             G
Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows 
F                   Em          D
Held up tall as the flames leap high
Am                         G 
The green knight holds the holly bush 
F                          Em     D
To mark where the old year passes by. 

Am                      Em
I can see lights in the distance 
C         G       Am           Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night 
Am                                Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing 
C       G            D
A waltz on All Souls Night. 
 
Am               G
Bonfires dot the rolling hillside 
F             Em         D
Figures dance around and around 
Am                      G
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness 
F             Em    D
Moving to the pagan sound. 

Am                          G
Standing on the bridge that crosses 
F                   Em         D
The river that goes out to the sea 
Am                    G
The wind is full of a thousand voices 
F                Em         D
They pass by the bridge and me. 
 
Am                      Em
I can see lights in the distance 
C         G       Am           Em
Trembling in the dark cloak of night 
Am                                Em
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing 
C       G            D
A waltz on All Souls Night. (2x)
