Wake For Young Souls

Em7   022030


[Intro]
D
today I found my soul
A
I felt it die inside of me
Em7
so I turn to you
G
life is like that, you know

D     A    Em7   G


[Verse 1]
D                   A
I have your face in a photo in high school
Em7                       G
when you were alive, but that's all I have


  D                     A
and I can't remember who I was myself then
        Em7                  G
and it doesn't help, still I look to you as a friend


[Chorus]
           D
to tell me who we are now, who we are
A
who we are now, who we are
Em7                         G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls you tell me

D
who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7                         G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls
G
like a lullaby we sing

D  A   Em   G


[Verse 2]
         D                 A
well the wind that blows, it's blowing colder
        Em               G
and the child that grows she's growing older
        D               A
and the friends we know they'll turn a shoulder
    Em              G
the friends we know they're all growing colder


[Chorus 2]
           D
so tell me who we are now, who we are
A
who we are now, who we are
Em7                         G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls

             D
you tell me, who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7                G
whoa whoa now on a wake for young souls


[Bridge]
Em7            Bm       A
                       where's my soul?
Em7            Bm       A             G
where's my soul?       where's my soul?
Em7            Bm        A                 G
where's my soul?       where's my soul?


[Verse 3]
D                                                      A
cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman    and the blood of the woman brings birth of a 
child
Em7                                       G
child grow up keep forgetting something   birth of a child comes someplace wild you

D                                           A
even grey days beat the shade to wean     unbodied unsouled unheard unseen
Em7                                                   G
let the gift be grown in the time to call our own     let the truth be sewn before the window's 
closing

D                                              A
truth is natural      like a wind that blows   follow the direction no matter where it goes
Em7                                          G
so it shall be     the earth and the sea     let the truth blow like a hurricane through me

(Arpeggio)

D A Em7 G


[Verse 4]
    D                      A
if I've been cold, if I've spoken in anger
Em7                   G
to have been bold         forgive me

D                                 A
you know I don't see your mother, not like before
Em7                          G
though she hasn't forgotten, she doesn't like to be reminded anymore

D                  A
Annie got married it didn't come without tears
Em7                   G
like the day you died I have laughter for these years


[Chorus 3]
           D
so tell me who we are now, who we are
     A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7                         G
where does time go now on a wake for young souls

D
who we are now, who we are
A
it's who we are now, who we are
Em7                G
whoa no now   on a wake for young souls


[Ending]
D
all the things we know
             A
are going to fall away from me
Em7
like a grain of sand
      G
slips through a good friend's hand
