Chords

VERSE 1
Am
She caught the melting sky

Am                             F
It burned but still the winter passes by and by

Am
To the other side

Am
A slow parade of wind

Am                                   F 
That blows through trees that wilted with the season's children
CHORUS 1
C                   F                Am
Are we saved by the words of bastard saints?

C             F        
Do we live in fear or faith?

F                    C         Am
Tell me now who's behind the rain
VERSE 2
Am
A maze of tangled grace

Am                             F
The symptoms of "for real" are crumbling from embrace

Am
But still we chase...

Am
The shadows of belief

Am                          F
And new religion clouds our visions of the roots

Am
Of our souls
CHORUS 2
C        F                 Am  
Are we a-shamed of our own fate

C                F
Or play the fool for our own sake?

F               C               Am
Tell me who's behind the rain
BRIDGE
Am
What do we need? 

C           Am
Where do we go?

Am          C                C
Where do we go when we don't know?

Am            C         F
Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow

     Am                  C           Am
When faith's our shelter from the cold?
