Em               G    D
It's always the quiet ones
Who are stranger than fiction
They hide under tables like a child

What kind of chemistry is it?
Leaden or golden?
Nobody sees them driving us wild

F#m        B
It's your life
         F#m                 B
Don't just collide with the waves
Cm  A#            G#
Oh look into her eyes
                         A#
You'll see such silence stalling
Cm               A#              F  G#
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Wake up your majesty there are
Thieves in the temple
Picking the sunspots out of the sun

Looking for symmetry in man
Another dead Beatle
Down through the path we see how they run

Chorus:
It's your life
Don't just collide with the waves
Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silence stalling
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Oh so many reasons why
You hear the silence calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life

Gm  G#
Oh salvation
Gm                  G#
Shine a light on a different world
     Gm          G#
And carry our thoughts on golden rays

Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silence stalling
Nothing seems to matter in this life
(Silence calling)

Oh so many reasons why
You hear the silence calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life
(Silence calling)

Look into her
Silence stalling
Nothing matters
Silence calling
