Sleeping at Last – Noble Aim (Guitar)

C                                   Am
Chances are we are the same;

C                                    Am
Against the odds, against the grain

     G                         F
We lean, like gardens toward light,

           G                        F
But we wait, like evening for night,

       C
Don't we?

C                            Am
Chances are we are alike;

C                                            Am
Against what better judgement writes

G                             F
We ache like children for love,

        G                      F
For a purpose worthy of

           C
Such a noble aim,

           G
Such a noble aim,

           Am                     C
Such a noble aim as love.

                                 Am
Chances are we bruise the same;

C                                Am
A family tree desperate for rain.

    G                         F
A thirst only deserts know best.

   G                          F
A hurt so at home in our chests.

          G                               F
Call it stubbornness or bravery,

               G                         F
To let our branches continue to reach,

                  C
With such a noble aim,

                  G
With such a noble aim,

                   Am
With such a noble aim

    C
as love.

         C                            Am
Every broken branch and loosened leaf

        G                         C
That we've grown to ignore,

             G                           F                  C
Is now a part of something greater than before.

         Am                     G
Every nest that rests upon our limbs,

             C
Seeking shelter from the storms,

      G                        F                  C
Is a purpose worth being broken for

  G                  F
Being broken for

C                           Am
Chances are we are the same;

C                                    Am
Against the odds, against the grain

     G                          F
We lean, like gardens toward light.

      G                     F
We reach with all of our might

                 Am               C
For such a noble aim as love.
