[G]
The colors were blooming with the [C] gold of sunshine, and my tunes were playing all the [G] heartstrings.
Would you hear my voice, [C] [G] love the [C] truth of music?
Would [G] you hold [D] it in, [C] ask for [G] your own?
It's handed down, the [C] thoughts are broken.
Perhaps they're better left [G] unsung.
I don't know, don't be [C]
naked.
[G] Let [D] there be songs [C]
to fill [G] the air.
[B] [A] To create [Am] a world [D] still [Am] warm, [D]
where [G] there is no pebble [C] tossed.
[A] No wind to [D] blow, reach out [G] your hand.
If your [C] cup may empty, if your cup is full, may it be [G] a gift, may it be known.
There [C] is a fountain that [G] [C] was [D] not raining, [C] but it has [G] been.
There is no, no [C] simple highway between the dawn and the dark [G] of night.
And if you go, you'll [C] walk a path that [G] [D] stands tall.
[B] [C] Your [G] steps alone, [C] [G] [A]
[Am] with the wind [C#] [D] still blowing.
[Am] [G] And there is no [C] pebble tossed.
[A] No wind to [D] blow, [G] you can choose to be [C] what's followed.
But if you fall, you can fall [G] alone.
If you should stand, there's [C] music guiding you.
[G]
If I knew [D] the way, [C]
I would take [G] you home.

[C] I'm [Am] not [G] alone, it's not too far away.
