     C5               G5          Bb5         A5           G5  G5 G5  G5 G5
And so begins the task I have dreaded the coming of for so long
    C5            G5      Bb5      A5            G5     G5 G5   G5 G5
I wait for the sun to remind my body it needs resting

CHORUS #1:
            D5      F5     C5        G5
And I must learn to live without you now
       D5       F5       C5       G5    G5 G5   G5 G5
I must learn to give only part somehow


 C5              G5            Bb5     A5
Camping on the edge of your city, I wait
          F5          C5         G5            G5 G5  G5 G5
Hoping someday you might see beyond yourself
      C5              G5       Bb5           A5
The shadows on the ceiling; hard, but not real
          F5         C5         G5             G5 G5 G5 G5
Like the bars that cage you within yourself            ...CHORUS #1

SOLO

CHORUS #2:
And I must learn to live without you now
As I can not learn to give only part somehow

All of these cages must and shall be set aside
They will only keep us from knowing
Actors and stages now bow before the truth
And the love shared between remains strong ...CHORUS #2
