[Intro]
D
today I found my soul
A
I felt it die inside of me
Em7
so I turn to you
G
life is like that, you know
D A Em7 G
[Verse 1]
D A
I have your face in a photo in high school
Em7 G
when you were alive, but that's all I have
D A
and I can't remember who I was myself then
Em7 G
and it doesn't help, still I look to you as a friend
[Chorus]
D
to tell me who we are now, who we are
A
who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls you tell me
D
who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls
G
like a lullaby we sing
D A Em G
[Verse 2]
D A
well the wind that blows, it's blowing colder
Em G
and the child that grows she's growing older
D A
and the friends we know they'll turn a shoulder
Em G
the friends we know they're all growing colder
[Chorus 2]
D
so tell me who we are now, who we are
A
who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls
D
you tell me, who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
whoa whoa now on a wake for young souls
[Bridge]
Em7 Bm A
where's my soul?
Em7 Bm A G
where's my soul? where's my soul?
Em7 Bm A G
where's my soul? where's my soul?
[Verse 3]
D A
cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman and the blood of the woman brings birth of a child
Em7 G
child grow up keep forgetting something birth of a child comes someplace wild you
D A
even grey days beat the shade to wean unbodied unsouled unheard unseen
Em7 G
let the gift be grown in the time to call our own let the truth be sewn before the window's closing
D A
truth is natural like a wind that blows follow the direction no matter where it goes
Em7 G
so it shall be the earth and the sea let the truth blow like a hurricane through me
(Arpeggio)
D A Em7 G
[Verse 4]
D A
if I've been cold, if I've spoken in anger
Em7 G
to have been bold forgive me
D A
you know I don't see your mother, not like before
Em7 G
though she hasn't forgotten, she doesn't like to be reminded anymore
D A
Annie got married it didn't come without tears
Em7 G
like the day you died I have laughter for these years
[Chorus 3]
D
so tell me who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls
D
who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7 G
whoa no now on a wake for young souls
[Ending]
D
all the things we know
A
are going to fall away from me
Em7
like a grain of sand
G
slips through a good friend's hand
