[D]
[G] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] [D] It's [G] in the [D] darkness of believing, [A] [D] it's in the shadows where we have to stand,
[Bm] [D] beside the loving and the grieving, [A] [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] [D] It's [G] in the way [D] it has to reach [A] us, [D] it's [G] in the restless [D] of the shifting sand,
[Bm] and [D] all the truth it has to teach [A] us, [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] Holding [D] back to listen to the [A] ocean, [D]
holding back to dance inside [A] the storm,
I may [Bm] be foolish [D] but I don't [G] care, as long [D] as you are [Bm] there.
[F#m] From [D]
edge [Gm] to edge we [D] take our pleasure, [C#] [D]
we follow [Gm] blindly [D] each insane command,
[C#] [B]
[D] we are judged by some eternal measure, [A] [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] [D]
Oh [G] and peace is [D] trying to know one, we're held [G] together [D] by an endless strand,
[Bm] first to [D] be woven then to be [A] undone, [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] Holding [D] back to listen to [A] the ocean, [D] holding back to dance inside [A] the storm,
I may be [Bm] foolish but [D]
I don't care, as long [A] as you [Bm] are there.
[F#m]
[D] [F#m] [B] [Bm]
[D]
Soon [G] all the [D] promises are [A] broken, [D]
[G] expectation [D] passes underhand,
[Bm] and [A] not a gentle [D] word is spoken, [A] [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] [D]
It's [Gm] in the darkness [D] of believing, [A] [D]
it's in the [Gm] [D] shadows where we have to stand,
[C#] [B]
[D] beside the loving and the grieving, [A] [D] oh I'll never understand.
[A] Holding
[D] back to listen to the [A] ocean, [D] holding back to dance inside [A] the storm,
I [Bm] may be foolish but [D] I don't care, as long as you [Bm] are [D] there.
[G]
[D] Holding back to listen to [A] the ocean, [D]
holding back to dance inside [A] the storm,
I may be [B] foolish but [D] I don't [G] care, [D] as long as you [Bm] are there.
