Bm G D A
Bm G D A
[Verse]
Bm G Blowing dust from pages of the book of the old ways D A Tryna fan a fire that's been smoking since they came Bm G Distant songs powdered bones deep inside the caves D A Sentimental pieces the eye cannot locate Bm G Tryna find some reason in the pain of it all D A And time oh time marches on Bm We're walking on broken glass and G D Tryna get along with peace and every A Piece the centre of it all Bm G Wounds as deep as canyons hands worked to the bone D A Sacrifices undenied to get us to this point Bm G Hand in hand we stumble on and listen to your songs D A Bm And breathe oh we breathe with heavy hearts
[Chorus]
G D Bm G A I lay here awake thinking what you would say D A Bm G You are always in my heart D A Bm G Burning strong from the start D A Bm G Now that you're gone your flame burns on Bm A D From dawn through to dusk
[Solo]

[Verse]
Bm G High above the mantle high above the shame D King parrot calls the one he loves A To keep her close and safe Bm Their pride it is their nature G From nature it was raised D A The pride inside of all of us can be extinguished by hate
[Verse]
Bm G Am I not my father living with this curse D A Am I not my mother a veil over the hurt Bm G You have shown me freedom, a king within my gates D A You have shown me anguish for the things I couldn't change Bm G I will lay down my ego for you D A But it's hard sometimes to let it all come loose Bm G We are bound up so tight conditioned from the fight D A Generations of wrongs became our truth
[Chorus]
G D Bm G A I lay here awake thinking what you would say D A Bm G You are always in my heart D A Bm G Burning strong from the start D A Bm G Now that you're gone your flame burns on Bm A D From dawn through to dusk

[Verse]
Bm G D A Please help me see your wisdom on my own when I am weak Bm When there's trouble on every side G When rain clouds fill my mind D A When the words become so faded I cannot read Bm G Help me to fly or help me to fall D A Must I do it on my own all alone Bm Days I'm scared for my life G Days I cannot stop my mind D A Days I know that I can see but I am blind Bm And when the rain finally falls and G D A I have no strength at all and I just wanna slip away and find your soul Bm G Give me strength D A Lord give me strength
