Verse:
G                     C
Hold my hand, keep on holding tight
           G                  D
Before you slip away into the afterlife.
Em                 C
Stay with me, stay another night
         G                 D
Its been 60 years since we pledged our lives.


G                   C
Fragile hands and a tender face
         G                      D
You gave many hours to help the human race.
Em               C
Softly you would pray your prayers
        G                     D
Drawing close to God, he will lead you there

Chorus:

G                     C
Where rocketships and fireflies
G              D
Flicker in the evening sky
Em                     C
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
G                       D
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye

Thats the story of our lives

Verse:

G           C
As we sit upon that hill
      G                    D
Where life and death fight for their fill
Em                    C
The book you wrote in breath and blood
          G          D
Shows the pages of a life of love

Chorus: 

G                     C
Where rocketships and fireflies
G              D
Flicker in the evening sky
Em                     C
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
G                       D
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye

Thats the story of our lives

G                  C
When you make that great escape
       G              D
Seeing Jesus there at Heaven's gate
Em           C
Oh, my love, I can hardly wait
        G                    D
Just to run with you through the landscape

G                     C
Where rocketships and fireflies
G              D
Flicker in the evening sky
Em                     C
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
G                       D
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye

Thats the story of our lives.(3X)
