Am E
[Verse 1]
Am D
I've been thinking about our fortune
Am D
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
Am D
For the love that's deep inside us now
G C G
It's still the same
[Verse 2]
Am D
And the sound we make together
Am D
Is the music to the story in your eyes
Am D
It's been shining down upon us now
G C G
I realize
[Chorus]
Em F#m
Listen to the tide slowly turning
G F#m
Wash all our heartaches away
A Bm A
We're part of the fire that is burning
G D E
From the ashes we can build another day
[Verse 3]
Am D
But I'm frightened for your children
Am D
That the lives that we are living are in vain
Am D
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
G C G
Will turn to rain
[Solo]
Am D Am D
Am D G C G
[Chorus]
Em F#m
Listen to the tide slowly turning
G F#m
Wash all our heartaches away
A Bm A
We're part of the fire that is burning
G D E
From the ashes we can build another day
[Verse 4]
Am D
But I'm frightened for your children
Am D
That the life that we are living is in vain
Am D
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
G C G
Will turn to rain
[Verse 5]
Am D
And when the final line is over
Am D
And it's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
Am D
I can hide inside your sweet sweet love
G C G
Forever more
[Outro]
