Verse 1:
G#E
Yesterday there was an accident on the street where they held hands
C#BF#BC#F#
They were looking for their hearts they were there from the start, from me to we
G#E
Just a little too young then to understand
C#BF#BC#F#
what's easy to advance isn't always made to last, oh here we are
G#E
Caught shufflin' past ambivalence somewhere
C#BF#BC#F#
considering her half And trying not to laugh, when they can see
G#E
The reckless blood of humanity tempers the quiet
C#BF#BC#F#
And all the time they spent Has led 'em to another end again
Chorus 1:
G#C#
At night in dreams of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
G#C#
Sometimes it seems as if we could build a love to free us from pain
G#C#
I know you think that it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
Verse 2:
G#E
Portrait of two in white in a church house made of glass
C#BF#BC#F#
Play an imaginary part and they knew it from the start, now here we are
G#E
Barely holding on to a promise of forever
C#BF#BC#F#
Made lying in the grass oh it isn't such a task, or maybe we
G#E
Just a little too cool not to understand
C#BF#BC#F#
When reason finds its end, where an open heart begins, to love again
Chorus 2:
G#C#
At night in dreams of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
G#C#
Sometimes it seems as if we could build a love to free us from pain
G#C#
I know you think that it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age

Chorus 3:
G#C#
At night in dreams of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
G#C#
Sometimes it seems as if we could build a love to free us from pain

I know you think that it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
