Intro:
Am F Am F
Am G Dm Am F C Am F G
Verse 1:
Am G
Each day the light gets born
Dm Am
From the body of the night I'm torn
F C Am F G
Into the blaze of the sun lit morn I'm thrown
Am G
So I do what I can
Dm Am
With a beating heart and my own two hands
F C Am F
And a thirst to understand this show
G Am
And the halls I hear it sung
F C
The youth is wasted on the young
Dm Em Am F
And these are words that can weigh a ton you know
G
But one day you'll know what they meant
Am Em
When you wonder where the wonder went
Dm C G
And all the world is sinking like a stone
Chorus:
C Dm
We are the lucky ones
Am F
You mothers daughters you fathers sons
C Dm Am F G
Dont you grow old before your time
C Dm
We are the holy rollers
Am F C
Who take this weight upon ourt shoulders
Dm Am F G
And make the best out of life
Am G Dm Am F C Am F G
Verse 2:
Am G
Each night when the darkness dawns
Dm Am
And from the troubles of the day I'm drawn
F C Am F G
Into the solace of the quiet song that grows
Am G
In everything I hear and see
Dm Am
And through the smoke in the air I breathe
F C Am F
And over arms that cover me like home
G Am
And on the streets where you hear it said
F C
Our Last hopes have long bed dead
Dm Em Am G
That's just the noise ringing in your head you know
Chorus (x2)
Am G Dm Am F C Am F C
