( Dm - F - C - Am ) x 4
[Dm]This glancing life[F] is like a morning [C]star[Am]
[Dm] A setting su[F]n, or rolling waves a[C]t sea[Am]
[Dm] A gentle bree[F]ze or lightning in a st[C]orm[Am]
[Dm] A dancing dream[F] of all eternit[C]y[Dm]
[Dm]The sand was shimmerin[F]g in the morning light[C] [Am]
[Dm]And dancing off t[F]he dunes so far away[C] [Am]
[Dm]The night held music s[F]o sweet, so lo[C]ng[Am]
[Dm]And there we lay u[F]ntil the break of d[C]ay[Dm]
[Dm]We woke that morning at[F] the onward call[C] [Am]
[Dm] Our camels bridle[F]d up, our howdahs full[C] [Am]
[Dm] The sun was rising[F] in the eastern sky[C] [Am]
[Dm]Just as we set [F]out to the desert?s [C]cry[Dm]
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
[Dm] The tents grew smaller [F]as we rode away[C] [Am]
[Dm] On earth that tell[F]s of many passing da[C]ys[Am]
[Dm] The months of peace and[F] all the years of war[C] [Am]
[Dm] The lives of love [F]and all the lives of [C]fears[Dm]
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
[Dm] We crossed the river b[F]eds all etched in st[C]one[Am]
[Dm] And up the might[F]y mountains ever known[C] [Am]
[Dm] Beyond the valley[F]s in the searing h[C]eat[Am]
[Dm] Until we reach[F]ed the caravanserai[C] [Dm]
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
[Dm] What is this lif[F]e that pulls me far away[C] [Am]
[Dm] What is that home [F]where we cannot reside[C] [Am]
[Dm] What is that quest[F] that pulls me onward[C] [Am]
[Dm] My heart is full[F] when you are by my sid[C]e[Dm]
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
[Dm] Calli[F]ng, ye[C]arni[Am]ng, [Dm]pulli[F]ng, h[C]ome[Am] to [Dm]you
