(Intro)

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

There's a clock timing the world as it turns

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

There's a man marking the candle as it burns

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

Keeping track of every minute that remains

Em7 Gmaj7

Still we hope somehow

Cmaj9

It's gonna be alright

Cmaj9

It's gonna turn out fine

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

There's a light shining beyond the southern cross

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

Burning bright for everyone of us who's lost

Em7 Gmaj7 Am7 B7

More than faith more than a reason to go on

Em7 Gmaj7

Rise on up knowing

It's gonna turn out fine

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

When the night turns to the deepest shade of black

Em7 Gmaj7 Cmaj9 Em7

At that point there is no reason to turn back

High above angels are falling from the sky
