Oh Life There Must Be More Acoustic Chords

(ver. 1)
Alan Parsons Project
[Intro]
Am   Fmaj7   Gmaj7  (2x)

[Verse]
Am         Em              Am     Em
Waves roll out             Out to sea
Dm              Em         Dm             E
Tasting the saltwater      Tears upon her cheek

Am      Em                 Am        Em
Morning breaks             She's not there
Dm             Em          Dm             E
Who could ever find her?   Who would ever care?

Am   Fmaj7   Gmaj7  (2x)

[Verse]
Am     Em                  Am     Em
No one heard               No one came
Dm          Em             Dm                  E
No angel of mercy          Appears to know her name

Am       Em                Am         Em
Where is hope              When words fail
Dm              Em         Dm                     E
All the colours running    Inside when life turns pale

[Chorus]
       A
In the docks the boats are harboured
          Dsus2
Where the water's cold and still
C6/9     G6/9                  Asus2 A
Oh . . . life, she cries, I've lost the will

         A
From the bridge she sees a lifetime
      Dsus2
Being washed upon the shore
C6/9         G6/9                  Asus2 A
Oh . . . . . life, she cries There must be more...

A   Am

[Verse]
Am         Em              Am     Em
Tides roll in              Waters rise
Dm            Em           Dm              E
Any chance of reason       Only clouds her eyes

Am      Em                 Am        Em
Arms of grace              She won't feel
Dm                    Em   Dm                  E
All the wounds inside her  That time can never heal

E

[Bridge]
F                     G        F             G
The city lights shine seaward  Swirling in a trance
F                 G            F                 G
Her eyes upon the water        Alone in her last dance

[Chorus]
         A
From the docks the boats are leaving
       Dsus2
As she cries into the dawn
C6/9     G6/9             Asus2   A
Oh . . . life, I'm barely holding on

        A
And she sees her future falling
       Dsus2
Til it finds the ocean floor
C6/9         G6/9                  Asus2 A
Oh . . . . . life, she cries There must be more...

A                   Dsus2   C6/9   G6/9   Asus2   A
There must be more

[Bridge]
Fmaj7        Gmaj7             Fmaj7         Gmaj7
And with the early light            She'll sail into the clear
Fmaj7             Gmaj7        Fmaj7             Gmaj7
The winds are all behind her  The hour's almost here

[Chorus]
         A
From the bridge she hears the voices
Dsus2
Turn into a roar
C6/9         G6/9                  Asus2  A
Oh . . . . . life, she cries There must be more...

       A
On the dock her soul is sinking
        Dsus2
But her spirit longs to soar
C6/9         G6/9                  Asus2  A
Oh . . . . . life, she cries There must be more...

A                       Dsus2
There must be more      There must be more
C6/9     G6/9            Asus2 A
Oh . . . life I'm barely holding on

A                       Dsus2
There must be more      There must be more
C6/9     G6/9               Asus2 A
Oh . . . life there must be something more
