C G
If you are here with me, I trust you to lead the way
D C G
When you're not I follow you, and always go astray
G
You're silent in the morning, suspended in the trees
G
Lunch time comes you've found your voice, it brings me to my knees
C G
The volume just increases, the resounding echoes grow
D C G
Till once again I bask in morning stillness, I love so
G
The target that I shoot for seems to move with every breath
G
I tighten all my arteries and make one last request
C G
Divine creation hears me, and he squashes me with fear
D C G
I think that this exact thing happened to me, just last year

G Am
Silent in the morning
C D
You found your voice that brings me to
G Am
Silent in the morning
C D
You found your voice that brings me to
G Am
Silent in the morning
C D G C G C
You found your voice that brings me to my knees
G Am C D

G Am C D
Smile at you, trust in me, laugh and brush you off, and I'd agree
