The Only Opening
The Eagle and Child
from 'All Moments'
[Verse 1]
Db Eb Ab
I have seen my structure and its falling apart
Db Eb Ab Absus4 Ab
only I can know the darkest parts of my heart
Db Eb Ab
every inclination moving me towards the fall
Db Eb Ab Absus4 Ab
helping me to see the ways you carry us all
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
Everyone’s story is a little bit different
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
Ask me if I need it.
[Chorus 1]
Db Eb
and that’s the reason that I believe this safety is a facade
Db Eb
I relinquish reservations while I am chasing...
Db Eb Ab
[Verse 2]
Db Eb Ab
We prefer the solitude of being unknown
Db Eb Ab Absus4 Ab
born into a world we try to conquer alone
Db Eb Ab
murmuring the mantras our society sings
Db Eb Ab Absus4 Ab
striving for the liberty to clip our own wings
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
Everyone’s story is a little bit different
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
It’s so easy to spot my weakness
[Chorus 2]
Db
and that’s the reason that I believe this safety is a facade
Bbm Db
I will run along life's ledges cause I am chasing God
Db
and that’s the reason I am freed from the barren guarantees.
Bbm Db
this open minded world has closed to the only opening
Db Eb Fm Bbm
Db Eb Fm Bbm
[Bridge]
Db Eb
I can hear the voices of the masterful designer of my breath
Fm Bbm
helping me with choices that avoid the places that only bring me death
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
Everyone’s story is a little bit different
Db
All is forgiven
Eb
Guess I knew it, but now I need it
[Chorus 2]
Db
and that’s the reason that I believe this safety is a facade
Bbm Db
I will run along life's ledges cause I am chasing God
Db
and that’s the reason I am freed from the barren guarantees.
Bbm Db
this open minded world has closed to the only opening
