Ken Hensley - Secret Chords

[Intro]
A  B7  D  A   B7  D  A
 
[Verse 1]
A                    B7
What is this place I find myself in?
            D
Where we're all supposed
                  A
To think the same way
                     B7
All I see is patience growing thin
          D
While the people need someone
     A                 B7  D  A  B7  D  A
With something to say
 
[Verse 2]
A
In the garden of peace
    B7
All around me is dying
        D
And the place where
                  D
My love grew is empty
D
At this moment in time
        B7
How can truth be a crime
     D                       A
I'll tell you if only you'll let me
 
[Bridge]
Bm                  A
I'll let you into a secret of mine
       Bm                     A
Like a delicate wine treat it gently
Bm
By setting free
        A
All the love in your heart
Bm
Life will become what it was
A            B7        D  A   B7 D A
Meant to be originally
 
[Verse 3]
A
With this memorized
          B7
Take your place by my side
          D
And we'll ponder
            A
The joys of tomorrow
A
Only in love can we
B7
Live with our pride
       D
For in love lies
              A
No reason for sorrow
