 Life is long and the world is Am7small our paths will Am6/F#cross some other Fmaj7/CtimeE7  
[VERSE]
 Am7Given shelter, Am6/F#blessed by rain Fmaj7/Cto our common E7unknown aim
 Am7From the north side Am6/F#of the town Fmaj7/Cto the south whE7ere we lay down
 Am7Under floodlights, Am6/F#buckled stars Fmaj7/Cwithout people, E7without cars
 Am7When I ask you Am6/F#without sound Fmaj7/Cwill you answer E7without words?
[BRIDGE]
 AmThrough the moonlight F#m7b5sweeping down Fmaj7when you close your Em7eyes you're fine
