A           G   Bm        A              G   Bm
I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone

A               G   Bm
To lie here and die among the sorrows

A                 G   Bm
Adrift among the days



    D
For everything I ever said

    Bm                           E        A
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead



       G           Bm             A
As all things must surely have to end

          G           Bm              A
And great lovers will one day have to part

              G  Bm             D
I know that I am meant for this world



A           G        Bm
My life has been extraordinary

A                      G   Bm
Blessed and cursed and won

A              G      Bm
Time heals but I'm forever broken

A                 G   
By and by, by the way



     Bm                 D
Have you ever heard the words

    Bm               A
I'm singing in these songs?

             D         Bm        A
It's for the girl I've loved all along

      D        Bm         E
Can a taste of love be so wrong



       G           Bm             A
As all things must surely have to end

          G           Bm              A
And great lovers will one day have to part

              G  Bm             A
I know that I am meant for this world


D       Bm        


A
And in my mind as I was floating

G             Bm
Far above the clouds

D
Some children laughed I'd fall for certain

Bm                                  A
For thinking that I'd last forever



      G    Bm              A
But I knew exactly where I was

      G        Bm            A
And I knew the meaning of it all

      G        Bm              A
And I knew the distance to the sun

      G        Bm           A
And I knew the echo that is love

      G        Bm              A
And I knew the secrets in your spires

      G        Bm           A
And I knew the emptiness of youth

      G        Bm          A
And I knew the solitude of heart

      G        Bm             A
And I knew the murmurs of the soul

        D        Bm              A
And the world is drawn into your hands

        D        Bm               A
And the world is etched upon your heart

        D        Bm      A
And the world so hard to understand

       D         Bm         A
Is the world you can't live without


G       Bm  A


      G        Bm             A   
And I knew the silence of the world

      G        Bm             A   
And I knew the silence of the world

      G        Bm             A   
And I knew the silence of the world

      G        Bm             E   
And I knew the silence of the world

      G        Bm             A   
And I knew the silence of the world
