G D
Strange face, with your eyes
C G6 G G6
So pale and sincere.
G D
Underneath you know well
C G6 G G6
You have nothing to fear.
C G Cmaj7 G6 G G6
For the dreams that came to you when so young
C G
Told of a life
Am C – Cmaj7 G6 G G6
Where spring is sprung.
CHORUS
G G7 G G7 G G7 G7 G6 G
Mhhhh Mhh mh mh mh mh mh mh mh Mhhhhhhhh [x2]

G D
You would seem so frail
C G6 G G6
In the cold of the night
G D
When the armies of emotion
C G
Go out to fight.
C G Cmaj7 G6 G G6
But while the earth sinks to its grave
C G
You sail to the sky
Am C – Cmaj7 G6 G G6
On the crest of a wave.
CHORUS
G D
So forget this cruel world
C G6 G G6
Where I belong
G D
I'll just sit and wait
C G6 G G6
And sing my song.
C G Cmaj7
And if one day you should see
G6 G G6
me in the crowd
C G
Lend a hand and lift me
Am C – Cmaj7 G6 G G6
To your place in the cloud.
CHORUS
