     C               G      
And so begins the task I have

dreaded the coming of for so

long
    C            G      Bb6      
I wait for the sun to remind my 
Am            G     Gsus G   Gsus G
body it needs resting

CHORUS #1:

you now
       Dm       Fsus       C
I must learn to give only part

 C              G            Bb6 
Camping on the edge of your city,
    Am
 I wait
          F          C         G 
Hoping someday you might see 
           Gsus G  Gsus G
beyond yourself
      C              G       Bb6 
The shadows on the ceiling; hard,
          Am
 but not real
          F         C         G  
Like the bars that cage you 
           Gsus G Gsus G
within yourself            ...CHORUS

G  O

CHORUS #2:
And I must learn to live without you
 now
As I can not learn to give only part
 somehow

All of these cages must and shall be
 set aside
They will only keep us from knowing
Actors and stages now bow before the
 truth
And the love shared between remains 
strong ...CHORUS #2
