F                               Dm7   
I have walked on the high wire 
        Gm7         F            F4  F 
With no net to catch me 
Dm7                        Gm7 
I have stood in the spotlight 
                   Bb7M               C 
Where each flaw could be seen 
         Bb7M               C    C/E     
And I've anteed my faith 
              F      F/A     Bb  
To the mercy  of      strangers 
                          Gm7              Eb7M 
'Cause when you ride on the big ride 
        Bb7M               C4 C 
You don't ride for free 
              F     Am7  Bb7M 
If we're only   brief   candles 
         C     C/E   F 
Let's burn for a day 
             Bb              F/A 
If we're only poor players 
         Dm                Bb7M  C 
Let's rush to the stage 
                   Dm7           Bb7M 
And if we don't know the ending 
             C         A/C#    A 
Let's begin anyway 
    Bb7M          Dm 
It starts in your heart 
       Bb              C  F 
An expression  of   faith 
   Bb7M            Gm7 
It starts in your heart

An expression  of faith 

                  F                 Dm7   
Though the north wind is freezing 
            Gm7                   F      F4 
And the thunderclouds gather 
            Dm7           Gm7 
Still we scatter the new seed 
            Bb7M         C 
And we trust in the sun 
                  Bb7M          C     C/E  
Though this world is uncertain 
           F   F/A     Bb  
We deliver our     children 
     Gm7            Eb7M 
To life's great adventure 
              Bb7M       C4  C 
And the promise of love 

 

Bb 
Some call it wisdom 
        F 
And some call it pain 
Gm7 
To find out the truth 
          F                   C/E 
To discover it's name 
Dm7 
But when all that we know 
              G     
Doesn't change anything 
     Gm7
