Capo 1

Intro:
E F#m A E x2

Verse 1:
E               F#m  A           E
May all of your days shine brightly
         F#m                 E
And your nights blessed with peace
             F#m         E
Wherever you lay down to sleep

E                  F#m
And all things are made good
A               E
For those who believe
        F#m         E
May you grow from a seed
       F#m              E
Into a strong, fruitful tree

Chorus:
       A      E
As the days unfold
F#m                 E
Hold your breath to see
A         E    F#m
Life is a mystery

    A           E
And joy, it is severe
         F#m              E
When the way is rough and steep
A             E              F#m
But love will make your days complete

E F#m A E x2

Verse 2:
    E                 F#m      A             E
And may the work of your hands help those in need
             F#m               E
Befriend the lonely, serve the weak
       F#m     E
And forgive enemies

    E            F#m       A          E
And if you find true love, one day marry
       F#m             E
Bear a child from your seed
           F#m         E
Help it to grow into a tree

Chorus:
       A      E
As the days unfold
F#m                 E
Hold your breath to see
A         E    F#m
Life is a mystery

    A           E
And joy, it is severe
         F#m              E
When the way is rough and steep
A             E              F#m
But love will make your days complete

E F#m A E x3
