Verse 1:
[G#]Yesterday there was an accident on the[E] street where they held hands
They were l[C#]ooking for[B] their [F#]hearts they [B]were ther[C#]e from the [F#]start, from me to we
[G#]Just a little too [E]young then to understand
what's e[C#]asy [B]to a[F#]dvance isn't [B]always m[C#]ade to [F#]last, oh here we are
[G#]Caught shufflin' past [E]ambivalence somewhere
[C#]consider[B]ing her [F#]half And t[B]rying not[C#] to l[F#]augh, when they can see
[G#]The reckless blood of humanity[E] tempers the quiet
And a[C#]ll the [B]time they [F#]spent Has [B]led [C#]'em to [F#]another end again
Chorus 1:
[G#]At night in dreams of a[C#] thousand moons and clear blue rain
[G#]Sometimes it seems as if[C#] we could build a love to free us from pain
[G#]I know you think that it[C#]'s easy to change but it's a symptom of age
Verse 2:
[G#]Portrait of two in white in a [E]church house made of glass
Play an i[C#]mag[B]inary [F#]part and the[B]y knew [C#]it from the[F#] start, now here we are
[G#]Barely holding on to a [E]promise of forever
Made [C#]lying i[B]n the [F#]grass oh it [B]isn't[C#] such a [F#]task, or maybe we
[G#]Just a little too [E]cool not to understand
When [C#]reason f[B]inds its [F#]end, where an [B]open [C#]heart be[F#]gins, to love again
Chorus 2:
[G#]At night in dreams of a[C#] thousand moons and clear blue rain
[G#]Sometimes it seems as if[C#] we could build a love to free us from pain
[G#]I know you think that it[C#]'s easy to change but it's a symptom of age
