“Under the Western Sky”
Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
C G Am Em
Under the western sky, I lay,
F C G
Dreaming dreams of yesterday,
C G Am Em
Where the river gently flows,
F C G
Carrying whispers of the crows.
(Chorus)
Am Em F C
Oh, compassionate eagle, fly high,
G Am F
Guide us home through the night,
Am Em F C
Your wings carry our songs,
G Am F
In your heart, we belong.
(Verse 2)
C G Am Em
In the landscape of our hearts,
F C G
Weaves a melody so stark,
C G Am Em
Beneath the shadows of the pines,
F C G
Echoes our love, so divine.
(Chorus)
Am Em F C
Oh, compassionate eagle, soar free,
G Am F
Under the vast, endless sea,
Am Em F C
Your spirit guides us through,
G Am F
In your flight, we find our truth.
