D A G D A D G D
[Verse]
A G D
Calling all olive branches and laid-off doves
G D A D
There is work to do before we say goodbye
Bm A G D
And who can see them turning to the faces of love?
A Bm G
Though I hear them pleading with me, "Don't let us die"
[Verse]
D A Bm G
As I sit, I can hear the troubled souls wander by
D A Bm G
And I feel them leaning on my shoulder to cry
D A D
Oh, just one more chance
[Verse]
A G D
Naked tree of winter seems to stand so proud
G D A D
Lording the poor mortal as it goes
Bm A G D
And the tears which well beneath the sombre shroud
A Bm G
Will they fall with the shame of somebody who knows?
[Verse]
D A Bm G
He can never be like the thorn of a rose
D A Bm G
Whose beauty remains even when the bloom goes

Oh, just one more chance
