C
A sense of duty was my one intention
        G
And an ugly beauty was my own invention
C
Pride a proud refusal
        G
And i refuse to need your approval
C
Too many seekers too few beacons
G
But through the fog we'll keep on beaming
                F
Through the crying hours of your glitter years
                C
All the living out of your tinsel tears
                F
And the midnight trains i never made
                C
'cos i'd already

Winter winners and those summers sons

Spring has sprung and autumns well done so well done
                F
And it's a better thing that we do now

Forgetting everything the whys and hows
                F

The earth is a world
                D
The world is a ball

                D
At the beauty of it all
                G

                C               G
Fallen from stars that lit my horizon
