The Cat Empire - Miserere

Do you ever look a^Gmround turn your ear to the ground show your f^Ebace to the sky on a ^Fnight when the skies echo sou^Bbnds from inside of your mind on the sta^Fge that you shone where the sun did^Bb become yo^Gmu ^F and m^Gmove with your thoughts through the sighs and the scenes of the wo^Frlds you have seen and the sights that have been your ref^Bblection in shadows and dreams? ^F - your reflection in shadows and dreams ^{Bb F}

Did you ever see a m^Gman who did walk down the street ^Ebwhite robe with no s^Fhoes on his feet and on t^Bbop of his head place a box with two slits and the si^Fgn from his neck said 'I do not exist'

or a w^Foman who could not remember her name did s^Ebtutter and stutter ^Fagain and again and s^Bbaw you and called you her son her eyes said 'my b^Feing is gone but still I'm not dead'?

^GmOh mis^Ebere^Fre Misere^Bbre ^EbMiser^Fere Misere^Bbre Misere^Gmre ^{Eb F}

Have you ever seen a ^Gmsound have you listened to an image have you ^Ebever touched a thought have you ^Fever tasted nothing have you ^Bbever told a lie that was true more than truth because ^Ftruth it had lied all its life when it spoke to y^Bbou? ^{Gm F} And ^Gmwhat did it say it is that it is this this goes ^Ebhere here is there it is not yes it is it was ^Gmdulling your senses your eyes they were bound have you ^Fever my friends been looking around?^{E6 F}

And the ot^Gher replies with a wave of a hand I am al^Ebready here in this prom^Fised land but n^Bbot by a god and not by a king and n^Fot by a spirit ^Bbdeep from within ^F I am he^Gmre because a miracle's a whim it's a fl^Fash of glory it's an empty tin and m^Ebaybe might lets you in

not to sa^Fve you but to keep on looking-

^GmOh mis^Ebere^Fre Misere^Bbre ^EbMiser^Fere Misere^Bbre Misere^Gmre ^{Eb F}

^EbOh m^Fisere^Bbre ^EbMisere^Fre

^EbHave you ever been so h^Fappy that you're sad? that the li^Bbghts turn to stars and the s^Ebtars become eyes and he^Fllos are goodbyes and the laughs are the sighs and the show disappears with the note 'until next t^Ebime'

^FLong live l^Bbiving if li^Ebving can be t^Fhis

^FDo you ever look around and find what is yet to be f^Bbound?
