So Begins The Task

CAPO: 4


verse 1 
D              A           C           Bm            A 
Now begins the task I have dreaded the coming of for so long 
  D            A     C          Bm            A  
I wait for the sun to remind my body it needs resting 

 
       Em       G        D       A 
I must learn to live without you now 
     Em              G         D            A 
As I cannot learn to give only part  -  somehow 

verse 2 
D              A            C       Bm 
Camping on the edge of your city, I wait 
G          D                A  
Hoping someday you'll see beyond yourself 
D              A        C             Bm 
Shadows on the ceiling, hard, but not real 
G                  D           A     
Like the bars that cage me within myself 


       Em       G        D       A 
I must learn to live without you now 
     Em              G         D            A 
As I cannot learn to give only part  -  somehow 


Instrumental: D  A  C  Bm  G  D  A   (2x) 


       Em       G        D       A 
I must learn to live without you now 
     Em              G         D            A 
As I cannot learn to give only part  -  somehow 


verse 2 
D            A              C             Bm 
All of these cages must and shall be set aside 
G             D                A     
They can only keep us from the knowing 
D          A          C              Bm 
Actors and stages now bow before the truth 
G              D               A     
And the love between remains a-growing 

 
       Em       G        D       A 
I must learn to live without you now 
     Em              G         D            A 
As I cannot learn to give only part  -  somehow
