A
As the dawn breaks
      C#m   
Over roof slates
      D                     E7
Hope hung on every washing line
Does your heart ache
Over life's fate 
I know we never had much time
For us to give 
We did
(not sure about this next line)

        A           C#m         D        E7
As the light creeps over the houses
And the slates are darkened by the rain
In this morning search for meaning

           A        Bm    A
I hear a songbird's mel-o-dy
           A        C#m   Bm
A simple songbird's mel-o-dy

          A      Bm      A
And its singing just for me
          A      C#m     Bm
And its singing just for me
          A      Bm      A
And its singing just for me
