        D A
Here today
            Bm   G
And gone tomorrow
           D         A      G
Crack the bone, get to the marrow
           D A
To be the bee
          Bm  G
And the flower
             D        A        G
Before the sweetness turns to sour

Chorus:
A        Bm         D     G    D  A
What we have we're gonna keep, always
A           Bm   D        G    D  A
What we've lost we don't need, always
A          Bm          D        G    D  A
What is it that won't let you sleep, always

Be the arrow and the target
Put your head over the parapet
Be uncool, be awkward
Don't look in the obvious place
The soul needs beauty for a soulmate

Chorus:
Get down off your holy cloud, always
God will not deal with the proud, always
Well if you dream then dream out loud, always
Eternally yours, always

F  G
I want you
   F
I want you
   G
I want you

Bm                  G
Touching the other side
                   D
I wanted to be in love
                A
I wanted to come

Chorus:
You say come to know yourself, always
Don't find yourself in someone else, always
And always wear a safety belt, always
Wait for me I'm running late, always
This is the moment that we share, for always
Turn each song into a prayer, always

A   Bm     D G
Now and forever
    D  A
For always
    D  A
For always
    D  A
For always
    D  A
For always...
