G
There were days
G
and there were days
Gm Eb
and there were days between
Dm Eb
Summer flies and August dies
Bb F
the world grows dark and mean
Dm Eb
Comes the shimmer of the moon
Dm Eb
on black infested trees
F Gm
the singing man is at his song
F Gm
the holy on their knees
C Gm
The reckless are out wrecking
C Gm
The timid plead their pleas
Dm Eb
No one knows much more of this
Bb F Eb
than anyone can see anyone can see
G
There were days
G
and there were days
Gm Eb
and there were days besides
Dm Eb
when phantom ships with phantom sails
Bb F
set to sea on phantom tides
Dm Eb
Comes the lightning of the sun
Dm Eb
on bright unfocused eyes
F Gm
the blue of yet another day
F Gm
a springtime wet with sighs
C Gm
a hopeful candle lingers
C Gm
in the land of lullabies
Dm Eb
where headless horsemen vanish
Bb F Eb
with wild and lonely cries lonely cries
G
There were days
G
and there were days
Gm Eb
and there were days I know
Dm Eb
when all we ever wanted
Bb F
was to learn and love and grow
Dm Eb
Once we grew into our shoes
Dm Eb
we told them where to go
F Gm
Walked halfway around the world
F Gm
on promise of the glow
C Gm
Stood upon a mountain top
C Gm
Walked barefoot in the snow
Dm Eb
Gave the best we had to give
Bb F Eb
How much we’ll never know we’ll never know
G
There were days
G
and there were days
Gm Eb
and there were days between
Dm Eb
polished like a golden bowl
Bb F
The finest ever seen
Dm Eb
Hearts of Summer held in trust
Dm Eb
still tender, young and green
F Gm
left on shelves collecting dust
F Gm
not knowing what they mean
C Gm
Valentines of flesh and blood
C Gm
as soft as velveteen
Dm Eb
hoping love would not forsake
Bb F Eb
the days that lie between lie between
