(Intro)

The child breaks each moment of sadness for our sakes

Hoping this dream will come true

Sadness is only a face for you

G G/F# Em7 G/D Cmaj7

I will try like the devil to bear your names

Am7 G G/F#

Anything for you

Em7 G/D Cmaj7 Am7

In only a moment your life can change

Amsus2 Cmaj7

Still lake, rocking the boat it's not too late

Amsus2 Cmaj7

Leaving, trying your best to believe then

D

Hoping this dream will come true

Csus+4 C

Sadness is only a face for you

Anything for you

In only a moment your life can change

Am Em

You fell through the window and down on the floor

Am Em

You found a direction, you hope will say more

G B Em D C

With your life, it's taken every one in view

Am

The people are pretty

The flowers are, too

Am

You don't get to heaven

Em Am Em Am Em

If they don't say you do

G B C

'Cause it's life and it's taken every one of you

And it's true

I'd like to take you but I don't think there's room for two

G G/F# Em7 C

I'd like to take, I'd like to take you (repeat and fade)
