[C#] [E]
[C#m]
[G#m] [A] [G#]
[C#m] Come wander quietly [A] and listen [G#] to the wind
[C#m] Come near and listen [G#] to the sky
[F#] Come [C#] walking high [C#m] above [G#] the rolling of the sea
[F#m] And watch the swallows as [G#] they fly
[C#m] There is no sorrow [A] like the murmur [G#] of their wings
[C#m] There is no [A] choir like [G#] their song
[F#m] There is [C#m] no power [G#] like the freedom of their blind
[F#m] While the swallows roam [G#] alone
[C#m] Do you hear the calling [A] of a hundred [G#] thousand boys?
[C#m] Hear the trembling [G#] in the storm?
[F#] Do you hear [C#m] the angry bells [G#] ringing in the night?
[F#m] Do you hear the swallows when [G#] they float?

[C#m] And will the breezes blow [A] the petals [G#] from your hand?
[C#m] And will some loving [G#] ease your pain?
[F#] And will [C#m] this silence [G#] drive confusion from your soul?
[F#] And [F#m] will the swallows [G#] come again?
