[Verse]
C F
It's of a strange and furious time
G D
When men did speed to pray
C F D D7
Along the road of discontent to gods of gold and clay
[Verse]
C F
Some did seek security
G D
Among the seas of change
C F
And some did seek dear life to wound
G D D7
A furious time and strange
[Verse]
C D
But when you find out who you are
G F C D
Beautiful beyond your dreams
C G
Just look around and
D D7
Notice where you are
[Verse]
C F
Just look around and notice what you see
G D
Each moment born for you innocently
C F
But when I see what we have made
G D
What we have out with the mind's blade
[Verse]
C F
In the blackness feel it all
G D
Repeated faces rise and fall
C F
With ancient goals unwondering fail
G D
Further obscure the ancient trail
[Verse]
C F
Filling with the endless years
G D
The river of your heart's tears
C F
I swear you have the power
G D
As the angels do
[Verse]
C F
Spread out your fingers and
G D
Make all things new
C F
Change the world by the things you say
G
By the things you love
[Bridge]
D D7
And by the games you play
Dm A
And you make each new day
N.C.
It feels so funny in your mummy's tummy
N.C.
Before you get born into
[Cont. Bridge]
N.C.
The world for to carry on
G
Remember young man of the time
D
Before you first went to school
C F D
How did it feel trying to live to the rule
[Cont. Bridge]
G
Remember you walked with your lover
D
Like a gypsy and a gypsy queen
C F D G
Under the stars where the sign was seen
C F
Under the stars where
[Cont. Bridge]
G G7
The leaves were green
C F D Dsus4 D
Under the stars where the sign was seen
C F
0 how many shining hearts
G D
With love has guided me
[Verse]
C F
And many I have met before
G D
In lands across the sea
C F
We used to speak of that ocean deep
G D
How little words can say
[Verse]
C F
It's better now to ask your friend
G D
What makes him sad today
C F
No one can do it for you
G D
Make your own sky blue
[Outro]
C F G
Make your own dreams come true
D C G
Make it come true.
