F                                                                                    Dm  
Lying on my bed I was reading French
C                                                                              Dm            Am  
With the light too bright for my senses
F                                                                                                    Dm  
From this hiding place, life was way too much
C                                                                                      Dm    Am  
It was loud and rough round the edges
C                                                                                              Dm  
So I faced the wall when an old man called
C                                                                              Dm      Am  
Out of dreams that I would die there
C                                                                                                 Dm  
But a sight unseen, you were pulling strings
C                                                                 Dm      Am  
And you had a different idea
F                                                                                         Dm  
I was like a child, I was light as straw
C                                                                                 Dm      Am  
When my father lifted me up there
F                                                                                                    Dm  
Took me to a place where they checked my body
C                                                                 Dm    Am  
My soul was floating in thin air
C                                                                                 Dm  
I clung to the bed, and I clung to the past
C                                                                                    Dm    Am  
And I clung to the welcome darkness
C  
But at the end of the night
                                                             Dm  
There's a green green light
C                                                                      Dm    Am  
It's the quiet before the madness
     Dm  
There was a girl that sang like the chime of a bell
                                                                                                                                        F      C  
She put out her arm and she touched me when I was in hell
F                                                                                    Dm  
Someone sang a song and I sang along
C                                                                                    Dm    Am  
Cause I knew the words from my childhood
F                                                                              Dm  
Intellect, ambition they fell away
C                                                                      Dm    Am  
They locked me up for my own good
C                                                                                                      Dm  
But I didn't mind cause the silence was kind
C                                                                    Dm  Am  
And you spoke to me in whispers
C                                                                                                                            Dm  
There was the sound of the wind in the cold cold dawn
C                                                         Dm      Am  
And the quiet hum of business
Dm  
Let me dangle a while in this waiting room
                                                                                                                                             F      C  
I don't need to go I don't need to know what your doing
 F  C  Dm  C  Dm  C)  
F                         Dm                                                              C                                                    Dm  Am  
Lying on my side you were half awake and your face was tired and crumpled
F                                              Dm                                              C                            Dm      Am  
If I had a camera I'd snap you now cos there's beauty in every stumble
C                                                                                                 Dm  
We are out of practise we're out of sight
C                                                            Dm    Am  
On the edge of nobody's empire
C                                                                                    Dm  
If we live by books and we live by hope
C                                                                                 Dm  Am  
Does that make us targets for gunfire?
F                                                                              Dm  
Now I look at you you're a mother of two
C                                                                                    Dm  Am  
You're a quiet revolution
F                                                                                                 Dm  
Marching with the crowd singing dirty and loud
C                                                    Dm  Am  
For the people's emancipation
C                                                         Dm  
Did I do ok, did I pave the way
C                                                                    Dm  Am  
Was I strong when you were wanting
C                                                                                         Dm  
I was tied to the yoke with a decent bloke
C                                                                         Dm  
Who was stern but never daunting
Dm  
And he told me to push and he made me feel well
                                                                                                                                  F  C  
And he told me to leave that vision of hell to the dying
 F  C  Dm  C  Dm  C)
