Children 18:3


Tom: C

Intro: C G Em F  C G Em
      (C G Em F)(x4)

Verse 1:
            C                Am                G           F
Every man accounted for, but lost in something tangibly unclear
              C                 Am       G
I thought about the things we'd lost and won
        F                    C
Like a record store full of rhymes and candy
       Am                G                    F
when Sheena's ready for guns and rock n' roll
                 C                     Am              G
I confess I was falling asleep with a whirlwind at my door

Prechorus:

A#              F                C              G
Always to the east our eyes are looking at the dawn
A#          F                 Am            G
Formally requesting, but the answers never come

Chorus:

C   Am           G
  Oh, a hundred years could pass
     F
What is forever?
Am              G        Em
Living proof of boy and girl
      F
We've got each other

(C G Em F)(x2)

Verse 2:
                              C
I told' em all once and they said I was right
        Am                       G                     F
But you never get strong if you win it without a fight
            C                        Am                  G
Oh, spit it out on the ground, we'll reach the other side
           F                         C
Well, she packed up her life to head down to the city
          Am                        G                          F
When the ticket man asked she just smiled 'I ain't comin' back!'
     C                  Am             G
Hey Driftwood, will you lead me to the sea?

Prechorus:

A#              F                C              G
Always to the east our eyes are looking at the dawn
A#          F                 Am            G
Formally requesting, but the answers never come

Chorus:

C   Am           G
  Oh, a hundred years could pass
     F
What is forever?
Am             F            C              G
Time is non-existent for today as long as we're together
C   Am           G                  F
  Oh, and every moment comes just a little faster
Am               G         Em
Living proof of boy and girl
       F
We've got each other

Prebridge:
A#                    Am
  In a moment here we all may die
Dm                             A#   G
No one now is quite aware just why

Bridge:
C        Em              F           G                C
  Summer nights that we vowed to remember turned to nightmare
        Em              Dm             G
Father Time has not appointed us for ever
        C         Em             F          G              C
Listen to summer nights that we vowed to remember turn to nightmare
       Em              Dm           G    (repeat once)
Father Time has not appointed us forever


C   Am           G
  Oh, a hundred years could pass
     F
What is forever?
Am            F             C            G
Time is non-existent when today could go on forever
C...
  Oh, what else can I say to make this better

Living proof of boy and girl

We've got each other

Chorus:

C   Am           G
  Oh, a hundred years could pass
     F
What is forever?
Am            F             C              G
Time is non-existent for today as long as we're together
C   Am           G                  F
  Oh, and every moment comes just a little faster
Am              G         Em
Living proof of boy and girl
       F             (repeat once from "Oh, and every moment...)
We've got each other
