Intro
Bm Bm Bm A x2
[Verse 1]
Bm
All the pictures on the wall
A
The sand lying on the floor
Bm
The bed upstairs, still unmade
Bm
The dust float in the light
A
The people just left
G#m
All laughter and mess
F#m
Forgetting this and that
Em D A
And rushing back
[Verse 2]
Bm
The front door open
Bm Bm
The music still playing in one room
Bm
Down the hall
A Bm
And towels on the floor
Bm
And then it's quiet
Bm
Just the bees and birds
A
The summer haze
G F#m
Of the trees, and the air
Em D A
Feeds it all, feeds it all
[Chorus]
Bm
We can all feel it
A G
Like a light hand on your back
F#m
Welcoming you
Bm
We can all feel it
A G
Like a light hand on your back
F#m
Welcoming you
Em D A
The day before we went to war
A
The day before we went to war
A Bm
We can all feel it
[Verse 3]
Bm
All the parasols and kids at play
A
The sea so still and calm
Bm
Blue as the cloudless sky
A
Just the gentle hum
Bm
Of the summer's goings on
Bm
Broken by the sudden rush
Bm
Of two planes
A
Flying low and fast
G F#m
Into the sun, into the sun
[Chorus]
Bm
We can all feel it
A G
Like a light hand on your back
F#m
Welcoming you
Bm
We can all feel it
A G
Like a light hand on your back
F#m
Welcoming you
Em D A
The day before we went to war
A
The day before we went to war
A Bm
We can all feel it
