Start Jamming...
[G] [D]
[G] [D] It
[G] was never [A] black and [F#m] white Gray spots, left [G] color blind
We [F#m] jump, closed eyes
[G] A small glimpse of a [F#m] bright light Still warms the [G] coldest nights
From [F#m] deep inside the [A] core of my [Em] bones
They hold a [F#m] secret [G] now
And [Em] guard the gates to keep [D] the darkness out
[G]
[F#] Wasn't it a great [A] life, if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When you were teaching [D] me to take flight and build something new
[G]
Wasn't it [D] a great life, if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When [D] I got to share it [A] all with you
[D] [G]
We can never [D] know if this house could be a [G] home for [D] more
Than a day or two
There's no happy [G] ever after
No silence, [D] no laughter
[G] Only memories, [D] which we grew inside of
[Em] These bones, they hold a [Bm] secret [G]
now
And guard the [Em] gates to [Bm] keep the darkness [D] out
And [Em] my bones, they [D] hold a [Bm] secret [G]
now
And guard the gates to [Bm] keep the darkness [D]
out
[G]
Wasn't [D] it a great life, if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When you were teaching [D] me to take flight and build something new
[G]
Wasn't it a [D] great life, if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When I got [Bm] to share it [D] all with you
It's my happy [G] ever after
To [D] have held a [G#] dream so [D] elegant in [G] my heart
[D] In my heart
It's my happy [G] ever after
[D] To have [A#] held a dream [G] so elegant in my heart
[Bm] In [D] my heart
Oh [G]
no
Wasn't [D] it a great life, [A]
[A#] if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When you were [D] teaching me to take flight and build something new
[G]
Wasn't [D] it a great life, [A#] if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When I got [D] to share it all with you
Oh no [G] no
Wasn't [D] it a great life, [A#] if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When you were teaching [D] me to take flight and build something new
[G]
Wasn't [D] it a great life, if only [Bm] for a moment
[G]
When I got [D] to share it all with you
Share it all [G] with you
[Bm] [D]
Share it [G] all with you
