The flesh and the bone

Politicians and preachers they all claim to know
    G/A              D                        A
The words that are written and the melody's played

As the years turn their pages, it all starts to fade

The grass still grows on the hillside

Got to believe in a dream
 D                   A5
Freedom is ever deceiving
       Cmaj7     G5              D
Never turning out to be what it seems

It's amazing how fast our lives go by
          G                             D          A
Like the flash of the lightning or the blink of an eye

We all fall in love, and we fall into life
    G                         D         A5
We look for the truth on the edge of a knife
