Chords for Emerson, Lake & Powell -- The Miracle (lyrics)

_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ So here we stand at the gate, _ _ [C] _ upon the dawn of [Eb] human [Bb] wings. _ _ _ _ _
_ His talents shine like daggers on the wings of revolution.
In pain, the madman's like us, but there's no [Cm] solution.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] Another sword [Cm] upon the throne, _ _ [C] _ another kiss that'll [Eb] last so long.
[Bb] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ Beneath this coat of treason, appear the thousand faces.
A dreadless man, a raiser, a lord who's hardly [E] chasing.
[Gb] Beyond the compass, [E] where the lords [Gb] assemble.
_ [E] _ [Gb] Beyond the world of [E] man, _ [Gb] _
_ _ [Bb] within the sanctum,
[Gb] the spectre [Ab] begins to tremble [Gb] upon the ground.
There [Ab] is fear [Gb] upon the ground.
[Ab] _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] Our seed's down, and so has the ship of glass.
[Cm] _ _ [C] _ Through the mist and [Eb] salt she's [Bb] found.
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[Bb] _ Her balance flies with her, the ghost of life descended.
With grace this soul's surrendered, the seal must be [Db] defended.
_ _ _ [B] _ [F] Still the dragons [Db] cling to breathe.
_ _ [F] _ Breathing fire, [Db] till we scream.
_ _ [F] They leave us nothing [Db] but our dreams.
_ _ [F] [Db] No shield can save us.
[Ab] It's gonna take a miracle.
[Gb] _ _ _
We're [Ab] searching for a miracle.
[Gb] _ _ _
[Bbm] It's [Ab] gonna take a miracle.
[Gb] _ _ _
We're [Ab] searching for a miracle.
[Gb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] Sanctum. _
[Bb] There's a storm above, and there is sun that's [C] never here. _
_ _ _ _ Our scheme. _
[Bb] For the blade is drawn, and there is blood [C] upon the seal. _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
[Cm] So that no one [Bb] here will fall on their [Cm] feet.
We're thieves [Bb] against the sun.
[Cm] We're the brave [Bb] atoll on a planet [Cm] cold.
The tapestry [C] of the sun.
[Cm] Six meager [Bb] dreams, their armor [Cm] gleamed.
This calm before [Bb] the storm.
[Cm] But all can [Bb] see their destiny.
[Cm] The bishop takes [C] the throne.
_ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [Cm] In the [Bb] sky, the arrows [Cm] glide.
Each one [Bb] to the mark.
[Cm] Defend the [Bb] truth, and lead us through [Cm] this voyage in the dark.
_ Make us [Bb] strong, no right from [Cm] wrong.
Teach us [Bb] what's worth.
[Cm] Cause every heart that [Bb] aches, is what it takes.
[Cm] To save our [Bb] mother earth.
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [F] _ Lay your life upon [Db] the line.
_ _ _ [Eb] [F] Each step for glory, [Eb] every time.
_ _ _ [B] You keep [Eb] out yours, and [Db] I'll keep mine.
_ _ [Eb] [Db] No shield can save us.
[Ab] It's gonna take a miracle.

_ [G] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Gm] So here we stand between [Cm] the gates.
Of _ _ [C] _ the dark and the [Bb] race.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Dm] This time we shine [Bb] like daggers.
On the wings of revolution.
In pain from madmen's sluggers.
There is no solution.
[Db] _ _ _ _ [B] Still the dragons reign [Db] supreme.
_ _ _ [B] [F] Breathe in fire, till we [Db] scream.
_ _ _ [B] They leave us nothing but our [Db] dreams.
_ _ _ [Eb] No shield can save us.
