[Verse 1]
[G]I
[C]stood [G]on the northern grey [Am]coast
in [F]the evening
Watched as the [C]tide shifted [G]sands
And [C]there, [G]carved in marble,
[Am]stained fingers of [F]water
A bad of [C]shared hopes and [G]plans
And [Am]I heard many voices
of [G]friends and of lovers
Of [C]those who raised glasses and [F]laughed
With [C]truth telling why,
[Am]I felt a heartbeat of ti[F]me
As years tumbled [C]in from [G]the past
[F]If this is a lov[C]e song you[Am] know,
then I [F]have plenty to [G]spare
[F]This moment will [C]pass like [Am]the wind,
but the [F]memory's [C]traced in [G]the air.
The [F]memory's [G]traced in
the [C]air.[G][Am][F][G]
When [C]journeys [G]were long
and [Am]battles were [F]won
With no thoughts of [C]power [G]or glory
We [C]raised col[G]oured banners,
sang [Am]louder than [F]guns
Touched dreams in
[C]the fullness [G]of morning
And our [Am]children were told
There's no [G]time to be old
Blow [C]away, the dusk, only [F]fall
The [C]old men [Am]with fire
Who [Em]still shall de[F]sire
For justice [C]today and [G]tomorrow
[F]If this is a lov[C]e song,
[Am]you know that I [F]have plenty to s[G]pare[F]
This moment will [C]pass [Am]like the wind,
with [F]the memories [C]traced [G]to
the [F]end[G][C][G][Am][F]
[G]
I [C]stood [G]on the northern grey [Am]coast
in [F]the evening
and watched as the [C]tide [G]shifted sands
And [C]they're [G]carved in marble,
[Am]stained fingers of [F]water
A vial of [C]shared hopes an[G]d plans
[F]If this is a [C]love song,
[Am]you know that [F]I have plenty
to [G]spare[F][C][Am][F][C][G]
[F]If this is a [C]love song,
[Am]you know that [F]I've had plenty to s[G]pare
[F]An d this moment will
[C]pass like the [Am]wind
But [F]the memory's [C]traced in [G]the air
The [F]memory's [G]traced in the [C]air[G]
