[Intro]
E A B
E A B
E A B
E A B
[Verse]
E A B
Oh, isn't it strange
E A B
How we move our lives for another day?
E A B
Its Like skipping a beat
E A B
What if a great wave should wash us all away?
E A B
Just thinking out loud
E A B
I Don't mean to dwell on this 'dying' thing
E A B
But look at my blood
E A B
It's alive right now deep and sweet within
E A B
Pouring through our veins
E A B
Intoxicate moving wine to tears
E A B
And I'm drinking it deeply
E A B
Oh this evening spent dancing It's you and me...
[Pre-Chorus]
A E/G# F#m
Oh This love will open our eyes
A E/G# F#m
From the dark side we can see a glow of something bright
A E/G# F#m
there's much more than we could ever know ,oh so
E A B
Don't burn the day....
E A B
away
E A B
Don't burn the day
E A B
Don't burn the day away
[Verse]
E A B
Is this not enough?
E A B
This blessed sip of life Is it not enough?
E A B
Staring down at the ground
E A B
then complain and pray "i need more from above"
E A B
Like a greedy little pig
E A B
Stop, just watch the world trickle away
E A B
Oh, but it's your problem now
E A B
Cos we'll all be dead and gone in a few short years
[Pre-Chorus]
A E/G# F#m
Just love will open our eyes
A E/G# F#m
Only love can put the hope in our minds
A E/G# F#m
Much more than we could ever know
E A B
Oh, so, don't burn the day
E A B
away
E A B
Don't burn the day ...
E A
away
[Chorus]
G A Bm F#m
Oh Come sister, my brother
G A F#m
Shake up your bones, shake up your feet
G A Bm F#m
I'm saying open up
G A F#m
And let the rain come pouring in
G A Bm F#m
Wash out this tired notion
G A F#m
Know that the best is yet to come
G A Bm F#m
Cos oh, while you're dancing on the ground
G A F#m
Why think of life when you're gone
[Post-Chorus]
E/G# G6 F#sus4 F#7
Love, love, love, what more is there?
E/G# G6 F#sus4 F#7
Cos we need the good light of love in here
E/G# G6 F#sus4 F#7
Don't beat your head Dry your eyes Let the love in there
E/G# G6 F#sus4 F#7
There's bad times But that's okay Just look for love in it
E A B E A B
And don't burn the day
E A B
away
E A B
Oh don't burn the day away
[Verse]
E A B
Look, here are we
E A B
On this starry night, staring into space
E A B
And I must say
E A B
That I feel as small as dust lying down here oh
[Pre-Chorus]
A E/G# F#m
What point could there be troubling You?
A E/G# F#m
Head down wondering what will become of me?
A E/G# F#m
Why concern with What we cannot see
A E/G# F#m
But there's no reason to abandon it
A E/G# F#m
Oh time is short , time, that's all right
A E/G# F#m
Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night
A E/G# F#m
Oh but Take your hands from your eyes, my love
A E/G# F#m
Cos All good things must come to an end some time
E A B
Oh But don't throw your day
E A B
away
E A B
Don't throw the day
E A
away
[Chorus]
G A Bm F#m
Oh Come sister, my brother

Kick off your bones, shake up your feet
G A Bm F#m
I'm saying open up
G A F#m
And let the rain come pouring in

Wash out this tired notion
G A F#m
Know That the best is yet to come
G A Bm F#m
Cos oh, while we're dancing on the ground
G A F#m
Don't think of life when you're gone
