This is a great song from Neil Young?s new album ?Fork in the Road? coming out
April 7th., 2009. I tabbed this from listening to the album on Myspace. Cheers for that, Neil!

[Em]Instead of cursing the darkness
[Am]Light a candle for where we?re going
[Em]There?s something a[B7]head worth looking [Em]for

[Em]When the line of time is on us
[Am]We will see our moment come
[Em]And the living soul [B7]inside will carry [Em]on

It?s a cha[Am]nce to give new mean[Em]ing
To eve[D]ry move we m[Em]ade
Through the c[Am]averns and the [Em]caves
Where we come f[D]rom[A]

(Fill Lick)

Slide guitar solo:
[Em] [Am] [Em] [B7] [Em]

When the light of dawn is on us
We will see what we can be
And the ancient ones can sleep an easy sleep

In the hallways of the ages
On the road to history
What we do now will always be with us

It?s a chance to give new meaning
To every move we made
Through the caverns and the caves
Where we come from

Instead of cursing the darkness
Light a candle for where we?re going
There?s something ahead worth looking for

When the line of time is on us
We will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on

Light a candle in the darkness
So others might see ahead
Light a candle in the darkness
When you go
