Intro
Am Fmaj7

Am			  Fmaj7
When the colour of the night
Am			       Fmaj7
And all the smoke for one life
Dm		         G
Gives way to shaky movements,
                Dm		   
Improvisational skills,
			 F
A forest of whispering speakers
		        Am	
Let?s swear that we will
             Fmaj7
Get with the times
	                 Am
In a current health to stay
	             Fmaj7
Let?s get friendship right
	         Dm
Get life day-to-day
                         G
In the forget-yer-skates dream
                       C
Full of countervailing woes
	                 G
In diverse-as-ever scenes
                        F(bar)
Proceeding on a need-to-know
             G(bar) F(bar)
In a face so full of meaning
             G(bar)  F(bar)
As to almost make it glow
                       G(bar)     F(bar)
O? for a good life, we just might have to weaken

		      C		
And find somewhere to go
		     Fmaj7
Go somewhere we?re needed
                   C
Find somewhere to grow
		       Fmaj7
Grow somewhere we?re needed

(Repeat chorus twice)

Dm			       G
Cause in the forget-yer-skates dream
			 Dm
You can hang your head in woe
		  G
In diverse-as-ever scenes
		      Am      Fmaj7
You know which way to go

Am   Fmaj7    (fade)
