B Dadd9
I will be the gladdest thing
E E
Under the sun
B Dadd9
I will touch a hundred flowers
E F#sus
And not pick one.
B Dadd9
I will look at cliffs and clouds
E G#m
With quiet eyes,
C#m G#m
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
C#m F#sus
And the grass rise.

C#m G#m
Doesn't each of us have a place
G#m
Where we belong.
C#m
Could be a sidewalk crack
F#sus
Or a sad song.
C#m G#m
Inside our searchings is desire
C#m D#m G#m
To etch a silent thought in stone
C#m D#m G#m E F#sus
To make a tender heart known.

I will mark which must be mine,

Everybody wants to be a hero
C#m F#sus
Or a savior of small things

I want to be champion of evening
C#m D#m G#m E F#sus
To forget not the beauty of the in-betweens.
G#m Dadd9
Every one of us an orphan
C#m E F#sus
Our bodies born from dust of the stars.
G#m Dadd9
We can comfort each other in this place

I can look into your eyes
F#sus
And see my own face.
