[Bbm] Is there no sign of life [F] as we gaze at the waters [Bbm] into the [Ab] [Bbm] stranger's [F] eyes?
[Db] [Bbm] [Ebm] And who [Ab] are we [Db] to [Gb] criticize
[Ebm] or [F] scorn the things that they [Bbm] [F] do?
[Bbm]
[Ebm] For we shall [Ab] see [Db] and we shall [Gb] find [Ebm]
Ammonia [Ab] [Bbm]
Avenue.
If we call for the proof [F] and we question the answers, [Bbm] only the [F] doubt will [Bbm] grow.
[F]
[Bbm] [Bbm] Are we blind to the truth [F] or assigned to believe in?
[Bbm] Only the [Ab]
wise will [Bbm] know.
[C] [Bbm]
[Ebm] And word [Ab] by word [Db] they handle it [Gb] down, [Ebm] the light that [F] shines [Bbm] today.
[F] [Bbm]
[Ebm] And those [Ab] who came [Db] at first to [Gb]
scoff [Ebm] remain [F] behind [Ebm] to pray.
