              Intro: Am, F, C, G 
 
   Am                F 
What started as a whisper 
    C              G 
Slowly Turned   into a scream 
    Am            F 
Searching for an answer 
      C                 G 
Where the question is unseen 
      Am                   F 
I don?t know where you came from 
         C                 G 
And I don?t know where you?ve gone 
    Am                  F 
Old Friends become old strangers 
              C                G 
Between the Darkness and the Dawn 
 
 F     C 
Amen Omen 
    G                Am 
Will I see your face again 
 F    C 
Amen Omen 
   G                 Am 
Can I find the place within 
   F        C      G     Bb   F  G#  Bb  
To live my life without you 
 
Versos 2: Igual à 1ª parte 
 
I still hear you saying 
All of life is a Chance 
 And is the sweetest 
When at a glance 
But I live a hundred 
Lifetimes in a day 
But I die a little 
In every breath that I take 
 
Refrão 
 
Versos 3: Igual aos anteriores 
 
I listen to a whisper 
Slowly drift away 
Silence is the loudest 
Parting word you never say 
 I put your world 
 Into my veins 
Now a voiceless sympathy 
Is all that remains 
 
Refrão
