The Dying Of The Light Lyrics & Chords By Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

I keep on running, but I can't get to the mountain
Behind me lie the years that I've misspent
And I've been sinking like a flower in the fountain
When all the love I'm gonna need is heaven-sent

Gonna try my best to get there,
but I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
Man, it makes me wanna cry

And I was told
that the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
It's alright,
if you dance with me tonight,
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

Woke up sleeping on the train that was bound for nowhere
Echoes that I could hear were all my own
The world had turned, and I'd become a stranger
And I'm tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

'Cause I try my best to get there,
but I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
Man, it makes me wanna cry

And the cold against my shoulder,
when it comes on in the winter,
and it seems to last forever,
and it makes me wanna,
it makes me wanna cry

I was told
that the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
It's alright,
if you dance with me tonight,
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

Gonna try my best to get there,
but I can't afford the bus fare
and the storm that's rolling over
Man, it makes me wanna cry

And I was told
that the streets were paved with gold
and there'd be no time for getting old when we were young
It's alright,
if you dance with me tonight,
we'll fight the dying of the light and we'll catch the sun

And the cold against my shoulder,
when it comes on in the winter,
Man, it makes me wanna cry

And the cold against my shoulder,
and it seems to last forever,
and it makes me wanna,
it makes me wanna cry
