[E]
There are many ways of being
[A] In a circle we [E] call life
A wise man seeks an answer
Burns [F#m] his candle [G] through [B] the night
[E] Is a jewel just a pebble?
Found a way [A] to shine
Is a hero's blood more [E] righteous
[F#m] Than a hobo's [B] sip of wine?
[A] [E]
Did I speak to you one morning
[A] On some distant world away?
[E]
Did you save me from an arrow?
[F#m]
Did you lay me [B] in a grave?
[E] Were we brothers on a journey?
Did you teach me [A] how to run?
Were we broken by [E] the waters?
[F#m] Did I lie to you [B] in the sand?
[A] I dreamed you [C#m] were a prophet [G#m] [E] in the meadow
I [A] dreamed I [C#m] was a mountain [G#m] [E] in the wind
I [A] dreamed [B] you'd [C#m] melt and touch [G#m] me [E] with a flower
I [A] awoke with this [F#m] flower [B] in my hand
[E] I know that love has seen
[A] All the infinite [E] in one
In the brotherhood of creatures
[F#m] Who the Father, [B] who the Son
The [E] vision of your goodness
Will sustain me [A] through the cold
Take my hand now to [E] remember
When [F#m] you find yourself [C#m] [B] alone
You're never alone
[E] And the spirit fills the darkness of the heavens
It [A]
[E] [A] fills the endless yearning of the [E] soul
It
[A] lives within a [C#m] star [G#m] too far [E] to dream of
[A] It lives within each [C#m] part and [B] ends the whole
[D#] It's [A] the fire [G#m] and [F#m] the wings [B] that fly us [E] home
[A] [B] Fly [E] us [A] [B] [E]
home
