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