INTRO: E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
//// //// //// //
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
You were dreamin' on a park bench by the broad highway somewhere
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
When music from the carilon it seemed to hurl your heart out there
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Past the scientific darkness, past the fireflies that float
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
To an angel bending down to wrap you in her warmest coat
CHORUS
Abm7Abm7
And you ask, "What am I not doing?"
F#Maj7F#maj7
She says, "Your voice cannot command."
B7sus4B7sus4
She says, "In time, you will move mountains,
B7B7 E MajorE
and it will co-------ome through your hands."
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Still you argue for an option, still you angle for your case
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Like you wouldn't know a burnin' bush if it blew up in your face
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Yeah, we scheme about the future as we dream about the past
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
When just a simple reachin' out might build a bridge that lasts
CHORUS,
then:
BREAK: G+G F#Maj7F#maj7 Emin7 A7Sus4 A7A7
//// //// //// //// //// //// //// ////
Yeeaahhh eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
So whatever your hands find to do, go on and do it with all your heart
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
There are thoughts enough to blow men's minds and tear great worlds apart
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
There's a healin' touch to find you out on that broad highway somewhere
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
To lift you high like music flyin through the angel's hair.
Abm7Abm7
Don't ask what you are not doing
F#Maj7F#maj7
Because your voice cannot command
B7sus4B7sus4
You see, in time, we will move mountains
B7B7
And it will come through --

Right through your hands. //// //// //

Through your hands //// //// //
