Verse:   A   C#   D  E  
Chorus:  D   E   A   F#m  
I can hear the sound again
Voices dancing in my head
Smile wide - drowning slowly as the echoes rise
Angels pounding at my door
They want to take away my war
I won't let them carve away the edges anymore
No more...
I can feel my face changing
Every day must have its night
Every curse is a blessing
Like a shadow in the light
Life is beautiful and crazy
Isn't it just like you and I
It's alright - like a shadow in the light
Her ear pressed to my chest
She can almost hear my breath
Don't you cry - it's ok - I chose it all this time...
Every story has an ending
Even though words never die
Every curse is a blessing
Like a shadow in the light
Winter won't last forever
And neither will I
It's alright...
Thank you God for all these choices
In the boundaries of your game
Through the silence and the voices
All my love will never change
It was so nice to be normal
To be normal for a change
So strange...
It was so nice to be normal - but what's normal, anyway?
Will try figuring out the chords for more bumblefoot songs, since there aren't 
many around here ;p Have fun ^^
