    Kyrie Eleison,        Kyrie Eleison.        Kyrie.....

 

    G

1.     The wind blows hard against this mountain side,

 

    across the sea into my soul,

F                 

    it reaches into where I cannot hide,

G                                                    ~

    setting my feet upon the road.

 

     G

2.       My heart is old, it holds my memories,

 

    my body burns a gemlike flame,

F

    somewhere between the soul and soft machine

G

    is where I find myself again.

 

C            Dm                       Em                      F      - G

    Kyrie Eleison, down the road that I must travel,

C            Dm                          Em                     Am - G

    Kyrie Eleison, through the darkness of the ni......ght.

C            Dm                       Em                   F          - G

    Kyrie Eleison, where I'm going will you follow,

C            Dm               Em                   Am - G

    Kyrie Eleison, on a highway in the li........ght ?

 

    G

3.        When I was young, I thought of growing old

 

    of what my life would mean to me.

F

    Would I have followed down my chosen road,

G

    or only wished what I could be ?
