Tom: Dm
C F C G
[Verse 1]
C F C
Sometimes I throw a stone into the darkness
F G C
Just to see what sound it makes
C F C
I listen closely when it hits the surface
Am G C
It says a little trust is all it takes
C F C
Sometimes I light a candle in the darkness
F G C
I watch the shadows dancing on the wall
C F C
And now it’s up to my imagination
Am G C
What it is I’m making of it all
[Chorus]
F G C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm G C E
It will always meet the sea
F E Am D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F G Am
You can always count on me
D7
As time will go by you’ll see
Dm7 G C
You can always count on me
[Instrumental]
C F C G
[Verse 2]
C F C
Sometimes I look for guidance in the darkness
F G C
To find the hidden path that takes me home
C F C
But by the time I’ve come around full circle
Am G C
I’m off again to make it on my own
[Chorus]
F G C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm G C E
It will always meet the sea
F E Am D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F G Am
You can always count on me
D7 Dm7 G Am
As time will go by you’ll see, you can always count on me
Am Am F
[Verse 3]
C Bb A
The great escape has only just begun
D7
But darling, I hope you’ll see
Dm7 G C
You can always count on me
[Instrumental]
C F C G
[Verse 4]
C F C
Sometimes I like the solitude in darkness
F G C
The time before the waking of the sun
C F C
But when I find you walking there beside me
Am G C
I know the breaking of the dawn will have begun
[Chorus]
F G C
No matter how many turns a river makes
Dm G C E
It will always meet the sea
F E Am D7
No matter how many times a promise breaks
F G Am
You can always count on me
D7
As time will go by you’ll see
Dm7 G C
You can always count on me
[Instrumental]
