[C#m] [C]
[Bm] [E]
[A] [B] [D#m]
[D] [C#m]
[C] [Bm]
[C#m] [E] [B]
I feel sorrow for [D#m] the fear
[D#] [D] and [C#m] everything it brings
[C] Wonder [Bm] if it will ever [E] sleep
I [A]
[B] know you [D#m] understand
Cause [D] you briefly [C#m] look away
[C] Focusing [Bm] on nothing [E] so now
Everything [G]
[A] is clear
Cause there's no one [D] to blame
You got no place [A] to hide
It's only [D] in your mind
And I [A] saw you in [A#]
amazement
[Bm] Stumbling through the [E] day
You told me [A] time never waits
[Bm] What is that supposed to [E] mean?
All of [D] life is [C#m] in one drop of the ocean
Waiting [Bm] to go home
Just waiting [A] to go home
And [D] if the moon can't [C#m] turn the tides
It can pull the tears and take them from [Bm] our eyes
And make them [A] into monsoon
[C] [A] And turn them into [D] monsoon
Or later they'll weep their [C#m] way back to the sea
Gonna finally [Bm] be free
Be free [A] for a while
[D] Until they break
Like [C#m] waves of sorrow
[B] [C#m] Always do all [Bm] in due time
Cause time [A] never waits
[B] [D#m]
[D] [C#m]
[C] [Bm]
[C#m] [E] [F#] [B]
[G] Daddy [D#m] don't daydream again
[D] Just help me [C#m] to believe and then
[C] Show me [Bm] that there's more in [E] the meantime
[A] Sonny
[B] do you [D#m] hear the sound?
You [D] will feel it when [C#m] it breaks
You [C] will know it when [Bm] it's gone
[E] Well, [Em] can I [Bm]
[A] explain?
Cause it's [D] only the pain
Coming [A] straight through
Coming to [D] remind
Cross cut [A] to you in [E] amazement
[Bm] Stumbling through the [E] day
You [A] tell me time never [E] waits
[Bm] That's okay cause I don't wait for [E] time
When all [D] of life is in [C#m] one drop of the ocean
Waiting to [Bm] go home
Just waiting [A] to go home
[Am] [A] And [D] if the moon can't turn [E] the tides
It can pull the tears and take them from [Bm] our eyes
And turn them into [A] monsoon
Make [D] them into monsoon or later
[Bm] They'll [C#m] weave their way back to the sea
Gonna finally [Bm] be free
Be free [A] for a while
Until they [D] break
Like [C#m] waves of sorrow
Always break all [Bm] in due time
Cause time [A] never waits
