about

This song was inspired by the Book The Wizard of Oz.

lyrics

G C/E D/F# G
I realize now what were searching for
Bmin A/C Dsus4
Someway to make it timeless
G C/E D/F# G
Within the folds of the years that keep turning past
C G/B Amin D
Someone to gauge the progress

Emin B7/D#
Don’t let the fire melt your wings
Emin/G A7sus4 A7
And let you fall before you sing
Amin Dsus4 B7/D Ddim
Within the trust of each breath you breath
C Amin Dsus4 D7
You learn to give before you receive

G C/E D/F# G
I realize now I’m not alone
Bmin A/C Dsus4
We are all searching for a way to belong
G C/E D/F# G
Within the smile of a child the touch of a friend
C G/B Amin D
Someway to carry long after the end

Emin B7/D#
We watch the lonely storm roll in
Emin/G A7sus4 A7
that makes us lose the child within
Amin Dsus4 B7/D Ddim
Until we learn to trust again
C G/B Amin D
And learn to live before the end

C emin
Here we are
Dmin G7
Trying so hard
Eb D
To be the life we think we live
g G7
To be the one within this skin
C Cmin/Eb Amin Edim D/F# G
And learn to live before the end
