Intro: | D | % ||: D | A :|| A7 D |
Section 1:
DTell us all a story about Ghow it used to be
DMake it up and then write it down Ajust like historDy
About Goldilocks and the three bears Anature in the crosshairs
And Dhow we all ascended from the Adeep green Dsea
When it’s not too hot, not too cold, not too Gmeek, not too bold
Where it’s Djust right and you have Asunlight D
Section 2: [6/8]
Then we’re Dhome Em A7
Finally Ghome D
Home in the Emland of the homelessA7, finally Ghome
D Oh, Gwhat are we going to do? A
I never did a Dthing to you
GTimAe peaceful Das a hurricane Bmeye
GPeaceful Aas a hurricanDe eye
Section 1: [4/4]
A Dhistory of whispers, a Gshadow of a horse
DFaces painted black in Asorrow and reDmorse
DWhite cloud, black crow, Acrucifix and arrow
The Doldest silence speaks the loudest
AUnder the deep green Dsea, when Gspeech becomes a crime
DSilence leads the spirit over the Abridge of Dtime
Section 2.1:
[6/8] | D | Em |
A7Over the bridge of Gtime,D I’m walking with my Emfamily
And the Aroad begins to Gclimb
DAnd then it’s, oh, Lord, Ghow we going to pray
With Acrazy angel voices Dall night
[7/8] E
Until it’s a new day
EPeaceful as a hurricane
EPeaceful as a hurricane
EPeaceful as a hurricane eye
EPeaceful as a hurricane
EPeaceful as a hurricane
EPeaceful as a hurricane eye
EPeaceful as a hurricane eye
Section 3:
[6/8]
DYou want to be leader? You want to change Cthe Ggame?
Turn your back on money, walk away frAom Dfame
DYou want to be a missionary? You got that missioCnary Gzeal?
Let a stranger change your life. How’s that make Ayou Dfeel?
DYou want to be a writer, but you don’t know how Cor Gwhen
Find a quiet place, use a humAble Dpen
Section 4:
[2/2]
DYou want to talk, talk, talk about it
All night Csquawk Gabout
The ocean and the atmosAphere D
Well, I’ve been away for a Clong Gtime
And it looks like a mess Aa-Dround here
And I’ll be away for a Clong Gtime
So here’s how the Astory Dgoes
There was an old woman who Clived in a Gshoe
She was baking a cinnaAmon Dpie
She fell asleep in a Cwashing maGchine
Woke up in a hurriAcane Deye
