Were All Leaving Chords

(ver. 1)
Dave Gunning
CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO: C

         Am7     F      C
There is thunder on the skyline 
       Am
And it tears her breath away 
                     C
In the twilight iron-grey 
           Am7                     F    C
A father's human hand could not command her 
     F
To return to them once more 
                        C
Like a soldier from the war 


CHORUS:
          F   C
We're all leaving 
F        C               Am7
Even the ones who stay behind 
          F      G         C
We're all leaving in our own time 


              Am7         F      C
Each night surrenders to another morning 
        Am
Still beneath the April skies 
                      C
He can hear a quiet cry 
           Am7              F      C
On smiling fields there's a battle raging 
        F
And for every bloom he knows 
                     C
Another flower never grows 


CHORUS:
          F   C
We're all leaving 
F        C               Am7
Even the ones who stay behind 
          F      G           Am7
We're all leaving in our own time 
          F      G         C
We're all leaving in our own time 


BRIDGE:
       Dm7                              F
And he has no Ark to bear him from this flood 
       C                                  G
Just a broken vessel wrought in flesh and blood 
           Am7
Though the riptides pull him under 
   D
He cannot cease to wonder 
       F
At the beauty of it all
       Dm7          C
At the beauty of it all 


              Am7           F      C
He brings her mother to the church doors 
              Am
And while she prays for what must come 
                    C
He walks the woods alone 
             Am7        F     C
And there he builds his own cathedrals 
        F
And on every whirring wing 
                        C
He can hear the forest sing


CHORUS:
          F   C
We're all leaving 
F        C               Am7
Even the ones who stay behind 
          F      G           Am7
We're all leaving in our own time 
          F      G           Am7
We're all leaving in our own time 
          F      G         C
We're all leaving in our own time
