INTRO: Fmaj7 Cmaj7 2x

Fmaj7                                         Cmaj7
Here we all are at the end of "the century of beauty lost".
   Fmaj7                              Cmaj7 
We greedily ate what you gave us, the rest we tossed.
      F                        Em7 
We've trapped all your rivers, paved every pass,
               Fm                    Am 
Pulled at your sky till we caused it to rip.
           Fmaj7                             Cmaj7
But you've got Jimi Hendrix so lets call it an even split.

Fmaj7                                         Cmaj7
I've met a girl who has turned my whole world upside down.
Fmaj7                               Cmaj7
The stars I once stretched for, now litter the ground.
      F                             Em7 
I am cursed by too little, or is it too much belief,
       Fm                        Am
In the strength of another man's words.
    Fmaj7            Cmaj7
But I've got a girl, thank you Lord.


Fmaj7    Cmaj7   F        C     
Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhhh Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhh 2x

Fmaj7 Cmaj7 2x


Fmaj7                                   Cmaj7
Here we all are at the start of another thousand years.
Fmaj7                   Cmaj7
All those love stories, yet to be told.
F                   Em7
Ours is this river asleep at our feet,
Fm                         Am
Blessed by this wet autumn day.
Fmaj7              
Here we all are...

Fmaj7    Cmaj7   F        C     
Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhhh Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhh 2x -FADE
