Intro: F  Bb  F 
   
                  C      F    
Be the sky I long to fly through  
                    C         Bb    
I'm a song for your breeze to sing 
    Dm      C        Bb    
I'm in this play without a part  
                           C      F     C  F 
And I stand silent with my racing heart 
  
  
                    C    F    
Beauty cries out to everyone  
            C        Bb    
So few ever hear her sing 
   Dm      C        Bb    
We live to play our souls out loud  
                           C      F    
Yet we stand silent with a racing heart 
  
 
                C                     Dm 
It has it's own life, it has it's own sun  
                Bb                   C 
It has it's own god, it has it's own gun 
                                           F 
It knocks at heaven's door and opens it as well 
                 Bb                   C 
It seeks its own truth, finds its own hell 
  
  
                        F       Dm   Bb 
I'm condemned to wander worlds apart 
                      C      F     Bb 
I stand silent with a racing heart 
                    F       Dm    Bb 
Condemned to wander worlds apart 
                       C      F     Dm  Bb  F 
I stand silent with my racing heart 
  
  
                   C      F 
In these places of my longing 
          C        Bb    
Beyond isolation's door 
   Dm        C       Bb             
In realms of dream I light the spark 
                             C      F  
My soul shall burn beside my racing heart 
  

                C                     Dm 
It has it's own life, it has it's own sun  
                Bb                   C 
It has it's own god, it has it's own gun 
                                           F 
It knocks at heaven's door and opens it as well 
                 Bb                   C 
It seeks its own truth, finds its own hell 
  
  

                        F       Dm    Bb 
I'm condemned to wander worlds apart 
                        C      F     Bb 
Standing silent with my racing heart 
                    F       Dm   Bb 
Condemned to wander worlds apart 
                        
I stand silent with my racing heart
