Verse 2
G
I want to know what became of the changes,
C/G
We waited for love to bring
G
Were they only the fitful dreams
D C
Of some greater awakening
G C
I've been aware of the time going by
G C
They say in the end it's the blink of an eye
G D
And when the morning light comes streaming in
C G/B Am7 G
You'll get up and do it again Amen
D
Caught between the longing for love
C Em B7
And the struggle for the legal tender
C/G
Where the sirens sing and the churchbells ring
Em
And the junkman pounds his fender
C G
Where the veterans dream of the fight,
B7 Em
Fast asleep at the traffic light
A9 A9/G D/F#
And the children solemnly wait for the ice cream vendor
Em D C D
Em
Out into the cool of the evening, strolls the pretender

He knows that all his hopes an dreams

Begin and end there

C G
Ah the lovers as they run through the night
C Em
Leaving nothing but to choose off and fight

And tear at the world with all their might
G/D Em
While the ships bearing their dreams
G/D D
Sail out of sight
Verse 3
G
I'm gonna find myself a girl,
C/G
Who can show me what laughter means
G D
Then we'll fill in the missing colors in each others
C
Paint by number dreams
G C
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
G C
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
G D
And when the morning light comes streaming in
C G/B Am7 G
We'll get up and do it again
C G/B Am7 G
Get it up again
G D D/C
Em
I'm gonna be a happy idiot, and struggle for the legal tender
B7 C/G
Where the ads take aim, and lay their claim

To the heart and the soul of the spender
C G
And believe in whatever may lie
B7 Em
In those things that money can buy
A9 A9/G D/F#
Though true love could have been a contender
