E 
It's a time to be humble, it's a time to be free 
        A                                               E 
It's a time to raise our voices loud and not go quietly 
E                            C#m 
As this time marches on into great uncertainty 
       B                            A              E 
I have music all around me bringing timeless melody 

Verso 2:
E 
There's a tide in the water, where the mountains reach the sea 
          A                                              E 
And the lilac grows beyond the scope of forgotten memory 
E                                    C#m 
Just as simple and as strange as the sea becomes the tree 
          B                              A              E 
There are people shouting clearly "I am you and you are me" 


           B                      A          E 
Oh, these times we share as this time will end 
       C#m                   B 
To be sure it will not come again 
      A                               E 
Just timeless myths, on her you can depend 

Verso 3:
E 
It's a time to be humble, it's a time to be free 
        A                                               E 
It's a time to raise our voices loud and not go quietly 
E                                         C#m 
Where the sky meets the shoreline and the mountains meet the sea 
       B                            A              E 
I have music all around me bringing timeless melody 

A                             E 
Diamond eye will not go quietly 
A                             E 
Diamond eye will not go quietly 
A                                                                E 
Diamond eye will, diamond eye will, diamond eye will not go quietly
