It's a horrible understanding
Dsus4/F#
That we spend our days
Em7
Doing what we can to kill the pain
G Dsus4/F#
All the faith it came decided, with a phone call we're reminded
Em7
That everyone we love will go away
Em7 G
It's a horrible understanding
Dsus4/F#
But still we try
Em7
To take the power from the time
G
With all the big plans we've been making
Dsus4/F#
We keep our eyes shut just to forget
Em7 C9 D9
That all that has begun will one day end
C9
My oldest friend
D9
I've been wondering
A Em7
Do you believe in whatever no living man will see
A Em7
That there's a place waiting for us in the air above the trees
C9 A
That all the stories we were told by our folks as kids
Em7
Are more than make believe
C9 A Em7
Well I haven't prayed in years but tonight I'm on my knees
Em7
And you were still a kid
G Dsus4/F#
On that sylvan street where you lived when you died too young
Em7
Ten years before the spring when we lost Mitch
Em7 G
It just gets harder to forget
Dsus4/F# Em C9
I could feel his lips against my ear gently whisperin'
D9 C9 D9
Oh my dearest friend I'm still listening
A Em7
Do you believe in whatever no living man will see
A Em7
That there's a place waiting for us in the air above the trees
C9
That all the stories we were told by our folks as kids
Em7
Were more than make believe
C
Well I haven't prayed in years,

And though I haven't prayed in years
Em
Tonight I'm on my knees
C A4 Em
And I'm wondering do you believe in whatever no living man will see
