Childhoods End

[Verse 1]
    Em
You shout in your sleep.
              A
Perhaps the price is just too steep.
           Em                      
Is your conscience at rest if once 
A
put to the test?
       Em                          
You awake with a start to just the 
    A
beating of your heart.
Just one man beneath the sky, just 
    G     D        Em
two ears, just two eyes.

[Verse 2]
        Em                         
You set sail across the sea of long
          A
 past thoughts and memories.
             Em                
Childhood's end, your fantasies 
            A
merge with harsh realities.
         Em                        
And then as the sail is hoist, you 
           A
find your eyes are growing moist.
All the fears never voiced say you 
        G         D     A         
have to make your final choice.
 G  Em

[Verse 3]
        Em                         
Who are you and who am I to say we 
  A
know the reason why?
          Em                       
Some are born; some men die beneath
     A
 one infinite sky.
             Em
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
           A
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust; all the
 G         D         Em
 proud men turned to dust.
           A
And so all things time will mend.
G       D         Em
So this song will end.
