   Am
Across the dark and dusty plain
        C
Where scars of old dry rivers run
 Dm
Night unfolds, a coal black shroud
   F
Across the hard and stony ground
Am
Distant stars shining bright
A#
In the cavern of the night
Dm
All is still and silence screams
         C
To the thunder of the Lorca train

Flaming steel as swift as wind
The wires hum and the rails, they ring
Smokestack burning, fiery sparks
Rise up and to the stars
Towns asleep by empty roads
Churches rise from crooked roofs
Cloaked in darkness nothing stirs
Grow smaller, darker, disappears

Chorus:
F
See the moon so still and cold
  Dm
A million stars that shed no warmth
     Am
Your nightmares all come out to play
C
In the silver light
 F
Wait for sunrise in the east
      Dm
Long shadows crawl across the plain
     Am
The ghosts of night will disappear
     C
And lay your fears to rest

Steam hissed up, the hot coals glowed
The furnace blazed, the wheels they rolled
On tracks of iron straight and cold
The silver moonlight danced
The flames are in the fireman's eye
Orange in the engine's glow
Gleaming pistons, whirling cranks
Wait for dawn and the rooster's crow
