Intro: Gm / Eb F / Bb F Bb F Gm F Bb F Bb F
Gm
Do you ever look aroundturn your ear to the ground
Eb show your face to the sky F Bb on a night when the skies echo sounds
from inside of your mind
F on the stage that you shone Bb Gm F where the sun did become you Gm and move with your thoughts
through the sighs and the scenes
F
of the worlds you have seenand the sights that have been
Bb F your reflection in shadows and dreams? Bb F - your reflection in shadows and dreams Gm Did you ever see a man
who did walk down the street
Eb F white robe with no shoes on his feet Bb and on top of his head place a box with two slits F and the sign from his neck said
'I do not exist'
Bb / F
F or a woman who could not remember her name Eb did stutter and stutter F again and again Bb and saw you and called you her son
her eyes said
F
'my being is gone but still I'm not dead'?
Bb / F
Gm Eb F Oh miserere Bb Miserere Eb F Miserere Bb Miserere Gm Eb F Miserere Gm Have you ever seen a sound
have you listened to an image
Eb have you ever touched a thought F have you ever tasted nothing Bb have you ever told a lie
that was true more than truth
F because truth it had lied Bb Gm F all its life when it spoke to you? Gm And what did it say
it is that it is this
Eb
this goes here here is thereit is not yes it is
Gm
it was dulling your sensesyour eyes they were bound
F have you ever my friends E6 F been looking around? G And the other replies
with a wave of a hand
Eb I am already here F in this promised land Bb but not by a god and not by a king F and not by a spirit Bb F deep from within Gm I am here
because a miracle's a whim
F
it's a flash of gloryit's an empty tin
Eb
and maybe might lets you inBb F Bb
F
not to save youbut to keep on looking-
Gm Eb F Oh miserere Bb Miserere Eb F Miserere Bb Miserere Gm Eb F Miserere Eb F Bb Oh miserere Eb F Miserere Eb Have you ever F been so happy that you're sad? Bb that the lights turn to stars Eb and the stars become eyes F and hellos are goodbyes
and the laughs are the sighs
and the show disappears with the note
Eb 'until next time' F Bb Long live living Eb F if living can be this
