Verse one
[C]So complete and so breathe d[Em]eeply for the life in which you w[F]ake[C]
[C]Grateful heart and helpless [Em]mind that reels with every chance you t[F]ake[C]
Pre-chorus one
[E]Dreams never t[F]ake me far a[C]way, [F]hide me from your lo[C]ve
[F]Wake to call your n[G]ame
An[G]d when you slow down youâ??ll surely say
Chorus
I kn[C]ow blowing in the w[F]ind thereâ??s a [C]voice that calls my[G] name
â??[G]Donâ??t fear yo[F]ur life boy[G], grow a[C]nd changeâ??
It c[C]ame running through the e[F]arth where
The p[C]ine and tall grass g[G]rew
Lea[G]ding me a[F]lways, c[G]lose to y[C]ou
Verse two
[C]In the clearness of the sp[Em]ring, heard you calling heard you si[F]ng[C]

Learn to bury our mistake
[C]Do I lead myself towards p[Em]ainâ??
E C C2*
Every song we raise in vain, every fire only flame
[C]Raise the children now to [Em]keep, every virtue that you s[E]eek
E C C2*
Hoping one day theyâ??ll receive
[C]â??We are nothing but the[Em] dust that gathers down below the[E] plain
We[E]â??ll be gone and youâ??ll remainâ??
