     Am          Em
The night is so wild,

     F                E        Am
And downstairs the child is sleeping,

     Em           F  E
Her spirit is free.

     Am           Em
For more than an hour,

        F             E
I have walked in the rain,

           Am         Em             F
I've been wondering, what she will be.

     Dm        
But where are the heroes?

 Bb                         Am                D
Where are the dreams that I had, when I was young?

      F                        C
Am I hoping in vain, just to think,

                      Esus4  E
She could change anything?
Verse 2:
                       Am  Em  F
Well, I'm counting on you.

I'm counting on you,

     Em          F         E            Am  
To bring that sweet gentleness to your world,

    Em             F  E
And all that you do.

Am      Em        Dm         E
My generation is losing its way.

          Am               Em          F
We don't know, what we're leaving for you.

   Dm                         Bb
So may there be millions who feel like you do,

        Am  Em  F
Oh, my love.
Chorus:
            C G      F
There is so much to know.

            C G     F
There is so far to go.

            C G    F
But you are not alone.

              C/G  G
When this is your world,

         E7           Am  Em  F  Esus4  E
And I'm counting on you.
Verse 3:
 Am          Em          F           E
Come to me, turn to me, give me your eyes,

          Am       Em           F   E
When you see, the mysteries of time.

 Am              Em
Here there are those,

          F           E
Who just live in the past.

           Am     Em          F  
They will never, let history lie.

          Dm           
And this sad little island,

     Bb                         Am               D
Is breaking my heart with it's dark, shades of green

        F
And as hard as I try,

        C                          Esus4  E
I just cannot see why this should be.

                 Am  Em  F  E  Am  Em  F  E
I'm counting on you.
Chorus:
            C G      F

But you are not alone.

I'm counting on you

 C/G  G  E7  Am  Em  F  Esus  E  Am
Oh..............
