INTRO: G D Dsus C G G G D C C

G
I’ve been

told that it’s just
C
the way life

goes.
C
Once the wildest river is now a

trickle to the sea.

The peak we risk our lives to scale becomes

dirt beneath our feet.

The wisdom of a life time always disa

G
I have seen

people

suffocate the

dream.
C
Forgetting to turn that one last time while she
G
watches through the door.
C
Focusing on the garbage that

she use to ignore.

Thinking she looks so beautiful but not

yelling it out loud.

He should have thought to kiss her

before he headed out.
Just fo

found her in such a crowd.

But we’ve

seen a cloud of
G
starlings rising
D
on a crisp autumn

day.
We were

handed the weight of a
G
child sleeping
D
and bore her

away.
We’ve

tasted the tears that
G
fall when saying
D
goodbye for
G
ever.
C G D (LET RING) G D Dsus C G G G D C C
And we’ve seen the silver from a waxing moon wash upon the shore.

VERSE 3: SAME AS VERSE 2

I have heard about the lives of small swift birds.
They dazzle with their colour and their deftness through the air.
Just a simple glimpse will keep you simply standing there.
Legendary journeys made on fragile hollow wings.
The night skies rich with whistling each and every spring.
And then there’s the day we look for them and can’t find them anywhere.

G
I’ve been
D
told that it’s just
C
the way life
G
goes.
