Sleeping At Last - Aperture

^GHappiness is somewhere ^CI have been before- ^GA blurry photograph ^Cthat I have since ignored ^GI'll carefully adjust the aperture once more ^GUntil I set the ^Drecord ^Gstraight ^GI'll brush aside the dim, ^Cmake room for the bright ^GI'll be an editor, no, a ^Ccurator of light ^GI'll let my better angels always set me right ^GUntil I even ^Dout the ^Gscore ^GUntil I even ^Dout the ^Gscore

^CGod, it has ^Embeen quite a year- ^GI've lived a little bit ^Dand I've died a little more ^CI know that I've ^Emasked it before ^GBut please let the scale ^Dtip here in my ^Gfavor

^GWhat was once the sweetest ^Cmelody I've heard ^GIs now a memory ^Creduced to little words ^GI'll tune the orchestra and play the overture ^GUntil I pinpoint ^Devery ^Gnote ^GGive me the heart of an archeologist That I may dig until I ^Cprove that I exist ^GA subterranean ^Ccathedral in my midst ^GWhere echos ^Dcome to ^Grest ^GWhere echos ^Dcome to ^Grest ^GIs this where echos ^Dcome to ^Grest?

^CGod, it has ^Embeen quite a year- ^GI've lived a little ^Dbit and I've died a little more ^CI know that I've ^Emasked it before ^GBut please let the scale ^Dtip here in my ^Gfavor

^GUntil I set the ^Drecord ^Gstraight ^GUntil I set the ^Drecord ^Gstraight ^GUntil I can set the ^Drecord ^Gstraight
