(verse)
[A]I've been wondering,
[E]Waiting for something to give;[F#m][D]
[A]I won't be a heroine -
I'm just [E]looking for something to live by[F#m][D]
[A]And there are lesions in the soil
[E]And there pockets of pain where the [F#m]shadows l[D]ie,
[A]And there are voices in the ocean,
[E]And thereis som[F#m]ething in the s[D]ky[E]
(Chorus)
[D]A mother should [E]say,
[D]A father should [E]say,
[A]You [D] look u[E]p,
[A] [D] Look dow[E]n,
[A] [D] [E] Keep your ear to the gro[A]und[D][E]
Keep your ear to the gro[A]und[D][E]
(verse)
[A]It's washing over me
[E]It's spinning under me[F#m][D]
[A]And am I looking up at angels
[E]Or am I really looking up at cl[F#m]ouds passing b[D]y?
[A]And when I say I'm listening
[E]Why is it I only h[F#m]ear you when you c[D]ry?[E]
(Chorus)
[D]A mother should [E]say,
[D]A father should [E]say,
[A]You [D] look u[E]p,
[A] [D] Look dow[E]n,
[A] [D] [E] Keep your ear to the gro[A]und[D][E]
Keep your ear to the gro[A]und [D] [E]
