Chords for Hymn Song (Peter Skellern) - Guildford Cathedral Choir (Barry Rose)

[A] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] When nights of [D] amber _ [B] _ gradually [E]
[Bm] fade out [A] and die
_ [E] _ _
_ [F#m] Who's gonna [E] stand there and [A] cry?
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [B] Which one of my friends will know where [A] the book is?
[E] Will know how to [F#] tell [G#m] me [A] goodbye
Like some [D] _ daydream [B] I drift through [E] _ [Bm] interminable [A] _ sky
[E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] Would it have [E] been worth all [C#m] the pain?
_ [F#m] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Bm] Yes, sure _ [E]
would
_ _ And [A] again, _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ [A] just like a [D] shadow
[B] We leave such a [E] [Bm] mark and [A] no more
_ [E] _ Life [F#m] _ _ [E] will go on as [C#m]
before
_ [F#m] You've _ _ [B] broken your heart and [E] you've played out your [C#m]
part
[E] And your story don't go [F#m] [G#m] on [A] anymore
If like [D] some whisper [B] that falls with [E] the winter's [A] first snow
[E] _ We're [F#m] here [E] for a moment [C#] or so
_ [F#m] _ _
_ [D] _ Then [Bm] _ _ _
[E] as dust _ we _ [A] go
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [A] If we [D] are numbered [Bm] like some treeless [E]
leaf on [A] the breeze
_ [E] _ _ _
_ [F#m] Sure we [E] are easily _
[A] [E] pleased
[F#m] _ _ [B] We are long to exist and [E] just to cover all the distance
_ Until we are [F#m] brought [G#m] to [A] an easy drop of [D] _ rain
[Bm] Leaves more of [E] a stain on [A] our _
[E] _ _ eyes
[F#m] Should I [E] walk up [C#m] and die
[F#m] _ _ _
[D] No, _ _ [Bm] no, _ [E]
no
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ When I [D] am called, [Bm] whatever _ [E] is calling
[A] Is there [E] _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ [E] a thing I have known?
_ [F#m] _ _ [B] How long have I looked?
If [E] I can't pin the cost
I could say I have possibly [A]
grown
What [D] take I with me?
_ [Bm] Nothing _ [E] _ _ but [A] this _
[E] But _ [F#m] once in [E] a _ momentary [C#m] kiss
_ [F#m] _ _ I [D] _ found [Bm] _ your _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] soul
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [E] _ _
[D] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
