VERSE 1
LAm MIm SOL
We told our tales as we
LAm MIm SOL
sat under mornin's sleepy
LAm MIm SOL
sky
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
With all the colours of the
LAm MIm SOL
sunrise shining in our
LAm MIm SOL
eyes
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
FA MIm SOL
One, then another with a
FA MIm SOL
story of yesterday's
LAm MIm SOL
lives
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
FA MIm SOL
or of a lover who had
FA MIm SOL
gone in a moment of
LAm MIm SOL
strife
[Pedal Steel Guitar solo over the same chords]
VERSE 2
LAm MIm SOL
No thought of sleep ever
LAm MIm SOL
dwells upon the wise man's
LAm MIm SOL
mind
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
Some task or audience
LAm MIm SOL
stealing every moment of his
LAm MIm SOL
time
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
FA MIm SOL
Thus we have learned to live while
FA MIm SOL
mortal man lies waiting to
LAm MIm SOL
die
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
FA MIm SOL
How can we do what must be
FA MIm SOL
done in just one short
LAm MIm SOL
life?
BRIDGE
DO#m
And if you ask, then you should
SOL#
know, if you still doubt you should be
FA
told, it was not we that made it
SOL#
so, it was by those who went
LAm
before...
LAm MIm SOL
LAm MIm SOL
CHORUS
LAm MIm SOL
And there you sit tomorrow's
LAm MIm SOL
child, so full of love so full of
LAm MIm SOL
life, but you must rise to meet the
LAm MIm SOL
day, lest you become another
LAm MIm SOL
tale, and there you sit tomorrow's ...(repeat CHORUS and FADE)
