VERSE 1
Re[Em]ject the worldly [Bm]lie that says
That l[C]ife lies always [D]up ahead
Let [Em]power go be[Bm]fore control bec[C]omes a crust ar[D]ound your soul
Es[Em]cape the hunger to[D] possess
And so[C]ul-diminis[Em]hing success
This wo[C]rld is full of na[G]rrow lives
I p[C]ray by grace your sm[D]ile survives
CHORUS
For [C]I would wander we[D]ary miles
Would we[G]lcome ridicu[Em]le, my child
To si[C]mply see the sun[G]rise of your sm[D]ile
To s[C]ee the light beh[D]ind your eyes
The ha[G]ppy thought that ma[Em]kes you fly
Yes, [C]I would wander we[G]ary miles
To sim[C]ply see the sun[D]rise of your sm[G]ile
VERSE 2
Now c[Em]lose your eyes and [Bm]you will see
Your o[C]wn unfinished memo[D]ries
Now o[Em]pen them for t[Bm]ime is brief
And yo[C]u'll be blest beyo[D]nd belief
Now [Em]glance above you at[D] the sky
There's [C]beauty there to b[Em]lind the eye
I [C]ask all this then [G]wait a while
To s[C]ee the dawning o[D]f your smile
