[F]
[Gm]
[Db] And inside [D] of [Eb] me we need so much more
[E] The sight of [Fm] a touch or the scent of [Gb] a sound
[G] Or the strength of an oak [Ab] roots deep in the [Am] ground
The [Bbm] wonder of [E] flowers to be covered and then [G] to burst [Db] up
Through tarmac [D] to the sun again
[G] Or to fly to the sun without burning a wing
[Abm] To lie in [C] a meadow and hear the grass sing
To have all these things in our memories [D] whole
And they use them [F] to cover us
So,
[C]
take [Bb] this place,
[C] here in
Why, take a free ride
I've [Bb] never seen, it's [C] more brave
I
[Bb] worked like a [Gm] slave for years
[C] [Bb] Sweat so hard just to [C] end my fears
[F] Love to end my [G] life,
[Bb] I should [C] have known
So please, take my [Bb] place, I've been stoned for
[C]
Love, don't you [Bb] run it
In the lakes, [C] one more time
[F] Left school with a [G] first-class pass
[C] [Bb] Started work at a [G] second class
[C] [Bb] School taught what I [G] wanted to [Bb] do
