Chords

[Intro] E A E A [Verse 1]
   E                 B          E
A single note passes out of the ashes

    C#m               B
A flickering ember begins

          E                        B          E
It’s the courage to turn when the pages have burned

           A        E          B
And your story now seems at an end

 C#m              G#m     C#m
Seasons stay and seasons go

 A            E         B
Sending your memories adrift

          E                     B           E
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

            A               E   A E A
That’s the mystery of your gift
[Chorus]
        C#m             G#m   C#m    A       E             B 
And the echoes of your melo--dy will always live in these walls

         C#m              G#m     C#m   A             E            B 
And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall

          E                     B           E
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

            A               E   A E A E A E A
That’s the mystery of your gift
[Verse 2]
           E                   B           E
There’s a voice in the shadow calling for more

            A          E             B
There’s a rhythm that beats from within

 E                         B             E
Lending your voice to the warmth of the song

             A              E      B
There’s a strength in the choir of one

 C#m                    G#m       C#m            A              E            B
Pure as the voice that sees the place where the weight of your past may now lift

          E                     B           E
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

            A               E   A E A
That’s the mystery of your gift
[Chorus]
        C#m             G#m   C#m    A       E             B 
And the echoes of your melo--dy will always live in these walls

         C#m              G#m     C#m   A             E            B 
And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall

    A                        E                         B
So sing higher & higher, a thousand new voices ring through

        A                         E                       B
If you sing out of the fire, the courage you need comes from you
