[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Say there was
a lesson on how to live
Then love would be the lesson
Say there was a lesson on how to love
Then life would be the [G]lesson

[Verse 2]
[Am]We're longing for looks and touch
and words and [G]feeling
[Am]We're walking on on
roads of dirt and sand

[Interlude 1]
We have to crawl and listen
[Am]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Say there was a lesson on how to live
Then love would be the lesson
Say there was a lesson on how to love
Then life would be the [G]lesson

[Verse 4]
[Am]We're carrying over the sky
our sweat and [G]breathing
[Am]Still we're living on,
we strive and win and lose
Appealing for [G]a meaning

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Take a deeper dive in the dark and [C]feel
The [Bb]pain and the rage and steal
[Dm]Robbing along the way
Still [F]you rise, still [C]you kneel
In the [Dm]eyes of those you touch
The [Bb]words you mean to say
Learn to [Dm]give, forgive

[Verse 6]
Through [F]love depend [C]with all that's living
[G]Dare now, live now[Gm],
[Bb]dance all nigh[Am]t
[Bb]Choosing, standing, [C]risking with my [Dm]soul
Re[F]member

[Verse 7]
[Bb]Throwing all my [C]skin to leave
[Dm]the maze
[F]Some say there's no [Bb]dawn
I [C]dream even [Dm]more[F]
[Bb]Lose or win or, [C]weep or shout,

we cry

Keep walking on
Say there was a lesson
Say there was a lesson on how to live
Then love would be the lesson
Say there was a lesson
