Tom : G
[Intro] G C Em7 D
G C Em7 D G C
The first thing that you'll notice is some
Em7 D
Separation from each other
G C Em7
Yes, it's a lie; is that we've been
D
Believing since time immemorial
G C Em7
There was an apple, there was a snake, there
D
Was division
G C Em7
There was a split, there was a conflict in
D G C Em7 D
The fabric of life
G C Em7 D
One became two and then everyone was out for
Themselves
G C Em7
Everyone was pitted against each other
D
Conflict ruled the realm
G C Em7
All our devotions and temperaments are
D G
Pulled from different wells
C Em7 D
They seem to easily forget we are made of
G C Em7 D
The same cells
[Refrão]
G C Em7 D
To my boy: all that energy so wild
G C Em7 D
All you hues and your blues in equal measure
G C Em7 D
Your comings and your goings-away
G C Em7 D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes
G C Em7 D
Ablaze
[Próxima Parte]
G C Em7
The second thing you'll notice is that often
D G
We think that there's not enough
C Em7
It might feel dark, it might feel lonely and
D G
You'll wonder why you're here
C Em7
You may be overcome with darkness and a
D G
Sense of hopelessness
C Em7
But it won't matter if you keep your core
D G C Em7 D
Connected to the one-ness
[Refrão]
G C Em7 D
To my girl: to your innocence and fire
G C Em7
When you reach out, I am here Hell or High
D
Water
G C Em7 D
This nest is never going away
G C Em7 D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes
G C Em7 D
Ablaze
[Ponte]
Bm G
And this cord is unbreakable
Em Dsus2
This pilot light is there in your pocket
Bm G
And this bond, beyond un-shakeable
Em Dsus2 G
Even if we all forget, all at the same time
C Em7 D
All at the same time
G C Em7 D G C Em7 C
If we forget at the same time
G C
The tenth thing you might notice is that
Em7 D
Everyone has fantasies
G C Em7
Different perspectives they would likely
D G
Fight over who is right and
C Em7
Who is the best? Who has won? Who's better
D
Than the other?
G C Em7
None of that will matter much when you
D G C Em7
Return to your place in the sun
D G C Em7 D
Your place in the sun
G C Em7 D
To my girl: all your innocence and fire
G C Em7
When you reach out, I am here Hell or High
D
Water
G C Em7 D
This nest is never going away
G C Em7
My mission is to keep the light in your
D
Eyes
G C Em7 D
To my boy, all that energy so wild
G C Em7 D
Love your hues and your blues in equal
Measure
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G C
The first thing that you'll notice is that
Em7 D G C Em7 D
Everything is temporary
G C Em7
The next you might notice is that we will
D G C Em7 D
Always be a family
G C Em7 D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes
G
