(Verse 1)
C G
I saw your face before you came
C G
Hope upon hope day after day
C G
Now that you're here I'll keep you safe
Am C D
No one will take you away
C G
Year after year it's all the same
C G
Criminals win and widows pay
C G
A pile of sand form shattered pearls
Am C D
Beauty will not save the world
CHORUS
n.C G D
But won't you walk with me underneath the pine trees
Am C D* G
Promise that we can be evergreen
Verse 2 (as 1)
Won't you tread softly in my home
We have a child trying to grow
It's dark outside but light in here
Why can't it shine just one more year
Maybe the time has finally come
When hope has died and fear has won
A snowy dream covered in stains
Everyone slowly goes grey
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Am C Am C
All your friends and lovers sisters and your brothers
Am C Am D
Flowers in the summer sun bright for a day
Repeat CHORUS x3
