[Verse 1]
[D]It'[A]s i[D]n t[A]he[D]
darkness [G]of be[D]lieving[A]
[D]It's in the shadows
where we have to stand
[Bm]Beside the lovin[A]g and the grie[G]ving
[A]O I'l[D]l never understand
[G]It'[A]s i[D]n the way it ha[G]s to reach us[D][A]
[D]It's in the restless of the shifting sand
[Bm]And all the trut[A]h it has to teac[G]h us[A]
O [D]I'll never understand
[G]Hol[A]ding

[Verse 2]
[D]back to listen to the ocean
[A]Holding bac[D]k to dance inside the[A] storm
I may be fool[Bm]ish but I d[D]on't c[G]are
As long as [D]you [Bm]are there
[D]

[Verse 3]
From edge to [G]edge we take [D]our pleasure
[A]We [D]follow blindly
each insane command
[Bm]Judged by some[A] eternal measu[G]re
[A]O I'l[D]l never un [G]der[A]stand
[D]O and pea[G]ce is child to [D]no- one[A]
[D]We're held together by
an endless [A]strand
[Bm]First to be [A]woven then to [G]be undone
[A]O I'l[D]l never understand
[G]

[Verse 4]
[D]Holding back to listen to the [A]ocean
Holding [D]back to dance inside [A]the storm
I may be fool[Bm]ish but I d[D]on't c[G]are
As long as [D]you [Bm]are there
[D][Bm][D]

[Verse 5]
[D]Soon all the [G]promises are [D]broken[A]
[D]And expectati[G]on pas[D]ses underhand
[Bm]And [A]not a gentle word [D]is s[G]poken
[A]O I'l[D]l never un [G]der[A]stand
[D]It's in the darkness of believing
[A]It'[D]s in the shadow[G]s
[D]where we have [A]to stand
[Bm]Beside the lovin[A]g and the grie[G]ving[A]
O [D]I'll never un[G]derstand
[A]Holding [D]back

[Verse 6]
to listen to the [A]ocean
Holding [D]back to dance inside the storm
[A]I may be foolish[Bm] but I don[D]'t car[G]e
As long as [D]you [Bm]are there
[D][Bm][D]
