The Am7wind it was so insDsus2istent
With Am7tales of a story sDsus2outh
But wAm7hen I spied two birds in a Dsus2sycamore tree

There came a dryness in my mouth
        Cadd9*      G  Dsus2  
Came a dryness in my mouth
Prologue part 3:
For Am7then without rhyme or Dsus2reason
The Am7two birds did rise up to Dsus2fly
And Am7where the two birds were Dsus2flying

Alone with my thoughts this evening

I walked on the banks of Tyne

I wondered how I could win you

Or if I could make you mine

G Dsus2

Cadd9*

Or if I could make you mine

Prologue part 2:

Am7 Dsus2

The wind it was so insistent

Am7 Dsus2

With tales of a story south

Am7 Dsus2

But when I spied two birds in a sycamore tree

G Dsus2

Cadd9*

There came a dryness in my mouth

G Dsus2

Cadd9*

Came a dryness in my mouth

Prologue part 3:

Am7 Dsus2

For then without rhyme or reason

Am7 Dsus2

The two birds did rise up to fly

Am7 Dsus2

And where the two birds were flying

G Dsus2

Cadd9*

I swear I saw you and I

G Dsus2

Cadd9*

I swear I saw you and I

I walked out this morning

Cadd9

It was like a veil had been removed

From before my eyes

For the first time I saw

The work of Heaven

Cadd9

In the line where the hills had been

Dsus4 D

Married to the sky

[Verse 2]

G G/B Cadd9 Dsus4 D

And all around me… every blade of singing grass

B7+/G# Em7

Was calling out your name and

Cadd9 Dsus4 D

That our love would always last

G G/B

And inside every turning leaf

Cadd9 Dsus4 D

Is the pattern of an older tree

Em7 Bm7

The shape of our future

Cadd9 Dsus4 D

The shape of all our history

Like winter’s freeze and summer’s thaw

B7+/G# Em7

The wounds she gave me

Cadd9 Dsus4 D

Were the wounds that would heal me

[Verse 5]

G G/B

And we’d be like the moon and sun

Its course across the sky

Where the river meets the sea

Something new would arrive

Something better would arrive
