The eyes are made to see 
                    Bb

I feel the power in my heart 
And is my moment

It is right there 
                           Am 
And itÂ’s staring me in the face 
Gm 
Disguise and make believe 
                      Bb

              Gm 
The fight is done 
And who are we to judge

What will become 
              Gm 
All the iron armour 
Is laid down, away 
Bb 
Followed by the heroes 
     Gm 
Who belong a rested earth, we pray 
We feel the rescue coming near 
Bb 
Within the woken soul to hear 
                                   Gm 
We sense the calm all wrapped in feeaaar 
And all the while we heed 
The senses way too vast to see 
Bb 
We beg of you to not let go 
Our names will provide us with a soul 
Dm (stop) 
I can feel it 
Bm        G 
Falling doown 
            Bm 
Start again 
                    G 
Life can bring you down 
            A 
The monumental truth 
                D  Bm 
Of elegance in you 
          G 
Falling fooor 
                    A 
The part of who we are 
                  D 
Makes you shine inside
