[Am]Your passin' broke the[Em] silence
On that [F]dark October[G] day
The [Am]sun was headin' [Em]for the west
As it [F]did I heard you [G]say
I [Am]set my sail for a [Em]gentle breeze
Now I [F]leave this world as it was [G]meant to be
And [F]you, did you [G]listen to any[C]th[G]ing I [Am]said?
Did [F]you ever [G]listen to [Am]me?

Though now it seems you'll never know
But every lad to a man must grow
Till winter comes to celebrate
Then proudly chills the bone
When at last they bury me
Into this ground you'll someday see
And you, did you listen to anything I said?
Did [F]you ever [G]listen to [Am]me?


--->
Thoug[F]h the face we wear
Somet[C]imes seldom speaks
From [F]the babe that cries
To th[C]is grown man's feet
May t[F]he hand still write
And i[C]ts' heart shape keep
Till [F]our fa[Am]thers, sons and daughters agree

[Am	G	F]

So I will [Am]pave this [G]road till [F]glory
Sets our [Am]broken [G]spirit [F]free
From e[Am]very cross-[G]soaked nail pours [F]endless rain
With t[C]ears no e[G]ye should[Am] see
But th[Am]ey could fil[G]l our highest [F]ocean
And th[Am]e rivers [G]in betwe[F]en
With e[Am]very bl[G]ade [F]that flowers must grow then drown
[C]Wi[G]th [E]love our cruelest sea
