This Is How I Know
by Ron Sexsmith

Capo 5
Intro:  Dm - C D 

Verse
D                      A        G    A 
From the darkness to a seed of light,

D                  A        G    A 
From a garden to a sheet of ice.

F#m                    Em
Feel you move in every sunrise 

F#m                    Em
In the town with all the leaves;

G             A           D
This is now I know you're near me.


D                   A      G    A
From the ashes of a broken home

D                       A       G    A
I sent a message to the great unknown.

F#m                     Em
Though the music on the radio

F#m            Em
Came to set me free; 

G             A        D
This is how I know you hear me.


Refrain
D             Cmaj7                      D
This is how I know the trials are not in vain.

D             Cmaj7                     D
This is how I know We'll rise and love again.

D             Dm C D 
This is how I know.

Refrain

Verse
D                  A      G    A
From a moment to a sea of days,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/ron_sexsmith/this_is_how_i_know_crd.html ]
D                A      G    A
From an ocean to single wave.

F#m                     Em
Out of nothing came the miracle

F#m                  Em
That brought us into being;

G             A       D
This is how I know it will be.

G             A 
This is how I know, 

Bm            E 
This is how I know,

G             A       D
This is how I know it will be.
