Em   	        D	   G
Why's it never light on my lawn
	     Am 	    G	        Bm      C   D
Why does it rain and never say good-day to the new-born
       Em                D	      G
On the big screen they showed us the sun
	    Am 	      G		  Bm C D
But not as bright in life as the real one
	    Am        G		  Bm C D
It's never quite the same as the real one

Chorus:
B	     F# 
And tell me grey seal
	    B7sus4
How does it feel
	  E 
To be so wise
B	        F# 
To see through eyes
	  B7sus4       E 
That only see what's real
B F#  A   E   B
Tell me grey seal

I never learned why meteors were formed
I only farmed in schools that were so worn and torn
If anyone can cry, then so can I
I read books and draw life from the eye
All my life is drawings from the eye

Chorus
Your mission bells were wrought by ancient men
The roots were formed by twisted roots
Your roots were twisted then
I was reborn before all life could die
The phoenix bird will leave this world to fly
If the phoenix bird can fly, then so can I

Chorus
