              Intro: Bm D E G7+ 
       Bm D E G7+ 
 
Verse 1: 
 Bm                              D  
I can see the faces through the broken glass 
E             G7+ 
No longer pass 
Bm                           D 
Looking at the sky I see the city lights 
E                 G7+ 
But no star fights 
 
 
 
D   A            G7+ 
I never want to fall asleep 
    D        A                   G7+ 
Within our dreams the weight we saw, we reap 
 Bm         A         G7+ 
Though I believe the sun still shines 
Bm       A            G7+        ( A ) 
And I believe there comes a time 
 
Bm           A               G 
When out of silence we will sing 
Bm         A                G 
And even broken bells will ring 
Bm           A               G 
Not all the answers are the same 
Bm       A             G 
Yet we still play th game 
 
 
D E G7+ 
 
 
Verse 2: 
Bm                                D 
Sweeping off the pavem with a parlor broom 
  E                 G7+ 
Going nowhere soon 
Bm                                         D  
Between the cracks of sidewalk there's a flower grown 
   E                 G7+ 
Beyond the stone 
 
 
 
D   A            G7+ 
I never want to fall asleep 
    D        A                   G7+ 
Within our dreams the weight we saw, we reap 
 Bm         A         G7+ 
Though I believe the sun still shines 
Bm       A            G7+        ( A ) 
And I believe there comes a time 
 
Bm           A               G 
When out of silence we will sing 
Bm         A                G 
And even broken bells will ring 
Bm           A               G 
Not all the answers are the same 
Bm       A             G 
Yet we still play th game 
Bm       A             G 
Yet we still play th game

And even broken bells will ring 
Bm           A               G
