Slaid Cleaves - Temporary
CAPO: 7th Fret
INTRO: C G Am F C/G C/E
G
Fall down on your knees
Am
It's whispered through the trees
F C
No one's come to save you
G
Let fade the little lies
Am
The sentimental cries
F C
Behold what nature gave you
CHORUS:
G
All you see
Am F C
Every love and every dream
G
Temporary
Am F C
As the morning dew will turn to steam
G
Battered by the years
Am
We'll quit this vale of tears
F C
And leave the world to turn
G
The voice of midnight comes
Am
And spoken on its tongue
F C
Man's infinite concern
CHORUS:
G
All you see
Am F C
Every joy and every sting
G
Temporary
Am F
As the blooming of the rose in spring
INSTRUMENTAL: C G Am F C G Am F C
G
Live well and learn to die
Am
Soon in the dust you'll lie
F C
With everything you know
G
Cruel death will not spare
Am
The wise, the young or fair
F C
Let us drain this cup of woe
CHORUS:
G
All you see
Am F C
Every thing and every friend
G
Temporary
Am F C
A love you thought would never end
CHORUS:
G
Every love
Am F C
Every dream and every joy and every sting
G
Temporary
Am F
The lullaby your mother would sing
