           Em (022000@1)            C (x32010@1)    GThere's (320003@1)a cross above the baby's bed,
   D (xx0232@1)           EmA (022000@1)Saviour in her dreams.
C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)       Em (022000@1)        
   But she was not delivered then,
         D (xx0232@1)        EmAnd (022000@1)the baby became me.
           Em (022000@1)             C (x32010@1)       GThere's (320003@1)a light inside the darkened room,
   D (xx0232@1)              EmA (022000@1)footstep on the stairs.
C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)    Em (022000@1)  A door that I forever close,
    D (xx0232@1)                  Em (022000@1)    
To leave those memories there.

C (x32010@1)                    Am (x02210@1)  So when the shadows link them,
C (x32010@1)                Am (x02210@1) Into an evening sun.
             Em (022000@1)                    C (x32010@1)     GWell (320003@1)first there's summer, then I'll let you in.
   D (xx0232@1)             EmSeptember (022000@1)when it comes.

       Em (022000@1)          C (x32010@1)       GI (320003@1)plan to crawl outside these walls,
  D (xx0232@1)             EmClose (022000@1)my eyes and see.
C (x32010@1)                   G (320003@1)      Em (022000@1)  And fall into the heart and arms,
     D (xx0232@1)              EmOf (022000@1)those who wait for me.
      Em (022000@1)       C (x32010@1)      GI (320003@1)cannot move a mountain now;
   D (xx0232@1)           EmI (022000@1)can no longer run.
C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)     Em (022000@1) I cannot be who I was then:
      D (xx0232@1)         EmIn (022000@1)a way, I never was.

 C (x32010@1)                       Am (x02210@1)  I watch the clouds go sailing;
C (x32010@1)                      Am (x02210@1) 
   I watch the clock and sun.
       Em (022000@1)            C (x32010@1)     GOh, (320003@1)I watch myself, depending on,
    D (xx0232@1)            EmSeptember (022000@1)when it comes.

C (x32010@1)                     Am (x02210@1)  So when the shadows link them,
C (x32010@1)                    Am (x02210@1)  And burn away the clouds.
          Em (022000@1)           CThey (x32010@1)will fly me, like an angel,
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)              EmTo (022000@1)a place where I can rest.
       C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)      EmWhen (022000@1)this begins, I'll let you know,
    D (xx0232@1)            EmSeptember (022000@1)when it comes.
