The rhythm of life

G6sus4/C   G6/B         Dsus2         G6/B      G6sus4/C   G6/B
Heaven withstanding and smiling we're all swept away

Dsus2         G6/B
The rhythm of life

G6sus4/C   G6/B         Dsus2         G6/B      G6sus4/C   G6/B
Is not so demanding as some caught in narrows would say
[Chorus]
Bm         Gmaj7       F#           F#/E
Fragile as ships as we pass through Gibraltar

Bm         Gmaj7       F#           F#/E
The sirens have long given way

Bm         Gmaj7       F#           F#/E
Dark as the murky graveyard of sailors

Bm         A       G           F#       Dsus2
Whispering secrets told in the crashing waves
[Bridge] G6sus4/C G6/B Dsus2 G6/B G6sus4/C G6/B [Verse 2]

The beating of hearts

G6sus4/C     G6/B          Dsus2    G6/B    G6sus4/C   G6/B
Set walls to trembling the power of silence persuade

The stumbling feet

G6sus4/C   G6/B        Dsus2      G6/B          G6sus4/C   G6/B
Stagger predestined we all end up wild eyed and crazed
[Chorus]
Bm           Gmaj7        F#       F#/E
And from the madness most jaded of vision

Bm             Gmaj7    F#         F#/E
Reflections of horror invade

Bm          Gmaj7     F#            F#/E
Running and falling relinquish your venom

Bm           A           G             F#         Dsus2
The antidote surely will cause your affliction to fade

How little we know of

G6sus4/C    G6/B               Dsus2      G6/B      G6sus4/C   G6/B
what we are blessed with.  Our shimmering island it turns

Dsus2         G6/B
How little we look at

G6sus4/C    G6/B       Dsus2     G6/B        G6sus4/C   G6/B
what we see clearly of tragedy's lessons not learned
[Chorus]
Bm               Gmaj7         F#         F#/E
Sleeping through classes we'll make it up later

Bm                    Gmaj7        F#       F#/E
There's still so much time left to go

Bm        Gmaj7    F#         F#/E
Misguided roses we bloom in October

Bm          A          G            F#            N.C. Dsus2
Emerging triumphant in time for the season's first     snow
