Let's take a better look
C G
beyond a story book
C F
And learn our souls are all we own
C G C
before we turn to stone
[Verse 2]
C F
Let's go to sleep with clearer heads
C G
and hearts too big to fit our beds
C F
And maybe we won't feel so alone
C G C
before we turn to stone
[Refrain]
F G Am
And if you wait for someone else's hand
F G Am
you will surely fall down
F G Am
If you wait for someone else's hand
F G
you'll fall, you'll fall
[Verse 3]
C F
I know that I am nothing new
C G
There's so much more than me and you
C F
But brother how we must atone
C G C
before we turn to stone
