[Verse 1]
D5 A
Well they say that it's a fact
D5
If you watch the sky at night

And if you stare into the darkness
A
You might see celestial light
E
And if your heart is empty
F#m D
And there's no hope in sight
A E D A
There's a chance you'll find an answer in the sky

[Verse 2]
D5 A
Well they say that it's a shame
D5
If you have nothing to believe
D
And if you can't hold onto something
A
You might as well die where you sleep
E
You don't need a prayer
F#m D
And there's no price to ask why
[Refrão]
A E D A
Sometimes you'll find an answer in the sky
[Bridge]

And it's all so much bigger than it seems

And it all overwhelms us now and then

And I'm banking on a chance we believe

That good can still control the hearts of men
[Instrumental]

Oh Oh Oh Oh
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]

And I'm banking on a chance that we believe

That good can still control the hearts of men
[Verse 3 2x]
A
This life's a long old road
D5
We shouldn't have to walk alone
D
But if you find the right companion
A
You won't feel so worn out when you've grown
E
All life is precious
F#m D
And every day's a prize
A E D A
And sometimes you'll find an answer in the sky
[Outro]
A E D A G6 D5
And sometimes you'll find an answer in the sky
A E D A
And sometimes you'll find an answer in the sky
