Verso 1:

F      Em       Am 
A star fades in space 
As a candle flickers 
F       Em     C 
Burning out of trace 
F        Em         Am 
Live our lives with grace 
As our candles flicker 
F      Em      Am 
Burning out of trace 
F       Em     C       Bb       Am 
Burning out of trace 


[Refrão]

             F 
Choose your words 
             C 
Choose them wise 
                G          G#5      Am 
For they will lead to your demise 
          F 
Take my life 
          C 
Take my faith 
             G                   F    Em      Am 
To stop the tears that run down your face 

(F  Em  Am) 

Verso 2:

F       Em     Am 
But I'm happy here 
As the plot grows thicker 
F       Em       C 
Passing with the years 
F        Em       Am 
Live my life with fear 
As our leaders bicker 
F       Em       Am 
Passing with the years 
F       Em       C      Bb      Am 
Passing with the years
