Whispers
2006, Gibson Chase-Pinkney

(Intro)
/ D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 / D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 /
(Verse 1)
In the filtered morning sunlight
with no sound but my own
softly quickly floating
floating towards home
/ D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 / D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 /
(Verse 2)
the ravages of progress
nature trampled in its path
never stopping to look backwards
and see the monstrous aftermath
/ D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 / D Dmaj7 / D7 G7 /

Chorus:

if you cannot find me
floating over the sea
if you cannot find me
than please let me be
/ G D / G D / G D / A7 D /

past the leagues of broken cities
shattered dreams with no hope
as I look upon them
I find it hard to cope

The light begins to fade
the darkness starts to rise
an irridescent stranger
with madness in his eyes

chorus

why do we delude ourselves
with bright colors and with noise
why cant we comprehend
lifes true and simple joys

why do we destroy ourselves
what do we hope to achieve
all the pain and suffering
what a tangled web we weave.

chorus

now I'm finally leaving
to where I cannot tell
Waiting for the endtime
to hear that final knell
