Wake up the vocal cords and let the [Eb] sound land there.
We have been settled down.
[Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [C] [Eb]
[Eb] It's in the darkness of believing
It's in the shadows where we have to stand
[C] Beside [Gm] the loving and the [Ab] grieving
[Bb]
[Eb] Oh, I'll never [Ab] understand
[Bb]
[Eb] It's in the way it has to reach [Bb] us
[Eb] It's in the restless of the shifting sand
[C] Love of [Gm] truth it has to [Ab] paint [Bb] us
[Eb] Oh, I'll [Ab] never understand it
[Bb]
Holding [Eb] back to listen to [Bb] the ocean
[Ab]
Holding [Eb] back to dance [Bb] inside the storm
I [G] may be foolish [Gm] but I don't [Ab] care
As [Bb] long as you [G] are there
[Gm] [Eb] [Ab] From edge to edge we [Eb] take our [Bb] pleasure
[Eb] Follow blindly to insane command
[G] We're [Eb] judged by some [Ab] eternal [Eb] measure
Oh, I'll never [Ab] understand
[Bb] [Eb] For at peace this child to no one
We're [Ab] held together by [Eb] an endless strand
[Cm] Forced [Eb] to be woven there to the [Bb] undone
Oh, I'll [Ab] never understand
[Bb] Holding [Eb]
back to listen to the ocean
[Ab] Holding [Eb]
back to dance [Bb] inside the storm
I may [Cm] be foolish [Eb] but I [Ab] don't care
As [Bb] long as you are [G] there
[Gm]
[Cm]
[Gm] [Eb] Soon all promises are broken
Expectation passes underhand
[Cm] [Bb] And not a dreaded word is [Eb] [Bb] spoken
Oh, I'll never [Ab] understand
It's in the darkness of believing
[Bb] [Eb] It's in the shadows where we have to stand
[C] Beside [Bb] the loving and [Ab] the [Bb] grieving
[Eb] Oh, I'll [Ab] never understand
[Bb] Holding [Eb] back to listen to [Bb] the ocean
[Ab] Holding [Eb] back to dance [Bb] inside the storm
I may [Cm] be foolish but I [Eb] don't [Ab] care
As long as you are there
[Ab] Holding [Eb]
back to listen to [Bb] the ocean
[Ab] Holding [Eb]
back to dance inside [Bb] the storm
I [Cm] may be foolish [Gm] but I [Ab] don't care
As [Bb] long as you are [Cm] there
