[E] One of the songs that I wanted to do, and I've never done it on stage with the [B] Mooties before,
was Emily's [C] song, which I wrote with my daughter.
[G] [C] It was the most beautiful experience [G] ever.

[D] [G] Lovely to [D] know the warmth [G] your smile can bring [C] to me
I [G] want to tell you about the [D] words you [F#m] do [G] now
Sing [C]
[D] [G] me a love of [D] mine
[G] You cannot [C] wait
I will [G] listen
Old [D] is beauty, weather [G] is new
[C] [G]
[C] And in [D] the morning of my life
And in [Am] the evening of my day
I will [D] try to [C] understand
What you [G] say
[C]
[D] [G] Rivers of endless [D] tides
[G] Look as beneath [C] my feet
And all [G] too soon they had [D] me
Standing on [G] my own
[C]
[D] [G] When my eyes were [D] closed
[G] You opened them [C] for me
And now [G] we journey
Through [D] our lives to what will [G] be
[C] [G] And in [D] the morning of my life
And in [Am] the evening of my day
I [D] will try to [C] understand
What you [D] say
Through all [Bm] that life can get to you
Only [Am] true love will see you
And we'll [D] stand beside [C] you now
In what you [G] say

What you [G] say
[C]
[D] [G] Take me into your [D] world
[G] Alone I cannot [C] go
But wrapping [G] heels to love
[D] You're leaving me [G] behind
[C]
[D] [G] Hold with me now
Into [D] your [G] land of [C] verities
And open [G] up that book [D] of pages in my [G] mind

The hope and everything of life in front of them
And to be afforded the opportunity to be able to write about that
and then perform it on stage with the Colorado Symphony years later

I think that's how
