Oooh Oooh 

G 
creation was the only word 
Em 
that made you feel you never were 
B7 
an endless hope is all it was 
Dsus2              Bm 
and holding sacred all we were 
G 
and don't forsake the way we were 
Em 
and don't tell me you never would 
B7 
and we don't need physical things 
Dsus2               Bm 
to make us feel and make us dream 
G 
when earth cracks open and swallows then 
Em 
we'll never be tired again 
B7 
and we'll be given everything 
Dsus2                       Bm 
the moment we realize we're not in control 
G 
and all you know gets older when 
Em 
the sun goes down and everything  
B7 
begins to fade away the waves  
Dsus2               Bm 
have come and taken you to sea  
G 
never to return to me 
Em 
never to return to me 
B7                 G * 
never to return to me
