D      G    Em   A
The warming sun, the cooling rain,
   F    G        C       D9 (x5755x)
The snowflake drifting on the breath of the breeze,
D       G         Em    A
The lightning bolt that frees the sky for you
F     G       C     D9
Yet only eagles seem to pass on through.
F       Bb     C    F
The words of love, the cries of hate,
Bb    Am     Bb     F
And the man in the moon who seduced you
   Bb   F
Then finally loosed you.
