[Intro]
C   Em   F   F   (2X)

[Verse]
            C
Was it love or recognition that
          Em
has healed this man's condition
           F
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that
        G
this bird won't fly away
C
We can see life hand in hand,
         Em
the green, the blue, the rough, the sand
        F
And in our time and in our land
          G
we'll savor everyday

[Chorus]
       Am                                 C       Em
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well
       F
at least we've learned
                                      G
some things along the way

[Verse]
         C
You took me from my bubble
               Em
knowing my defense was weak
                F
And you sat there and you listened
        G
any time I chose to speak
           C
you gathered from my pleas to
        Em
you that I am but a clown
           F                                G
And I fear only a hero can defeat

these demons now

[Chorus]
       Am                                  C       Em
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well
       F
at least we've learned some
   G            C
tricks of trade

Em   F   F   C   Em   F   F

Am                                                 C        Em
And as time shall inevitably move on, mmmmh well then
       F
at least we'll have four strong
               G
legs to stand on
                    C
To keep us alive...
