Verse 
B5 
From the day that we were born we've been heading down a track 
D         A                  B5 
Sometimes it's made for good sometimes for bad 
G              A         B5 
But if we look behind us there's a wave coming down 
G             A           B5 
Carrying us forward to a new age 

 
Bm             A     D         Em 
What about the world around us 
Bm         A       D    Em 
How can we fail to see 
A                Em7  
And now that our fathers have gone 
A              Em7 
And we've been left to carry on 
Bm             A       Bm 
What about the age of reason 

Verse 
B5 
So why can't we be still why can't we love each other 
D          A                 B5 
Is kindness an ancient skill buried by our blindness 
G              A         B5 
And if we look behind us there's a wind blowing in 
G             A       B5 
To create the age of reason 


Bm             A     D         Em 
What about the world around us 
Bm         A       D    Em 
How can we fail to see 
A                Em7  
And now that our fathers have gone 
A              Em7 
And we've been left to carry on

What about the age of reason

Verse 
B5 
If we consider carefully the options put before us 
D          A                B5 
So much wisdom so much love so much waiting for us 
G              A      B5 
And if we look ahead there's the sun and the seasons 
G           A              B5 
Another day another age of reason
