It's the words I've never written that say more about myself 
        A#                        Dm                  C 
Where empty is the promise lies a pocket full of doubt

Leave a smile across my face 
        F                    C             Am    
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind

For I still belong in the cradle of humankind

We're all exiles here in madness kicking down each other's door 
    F                            Am 
Unforgiven is the lesson we pour upon ourselves 
        A#                         Dm                     C 
When a helping hand is needed, slap in the face is what we get 


          F               Dm               F            Dm 
But I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life 
          F              C                 Am 
'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal

          F                             Am 
Sometimes drink till I am empty, grab another from the shelf 
           A#                                Dm                 C 
Though I'm stuck in conversation, it's with myself and no one else 
        F                           Am 
Never listen to much reason till I hear it's a last call 
        A#                             Dm           C 
When I notice that my ghost is still dancing on his own

For I still belong in the cradle of humankind 




            C 
Wherever you go 
(The sun sets to rise 
On a day that you find 
You Struggle to be 
But you're already there) 
             F 
Wherever you go 

           C 
Werever you go 
(A passionless life 
Has no words to write 
It's a body that's broken 
And breathless of life) 
               F 
Oh, wherever you go 


               A#                               F 
There'll always be a roof and a dream above our head 
               C         A#                  F 
As long as I'm breathing, then forever I'll be 

          F               Dm               F            Dm 
Ah, I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life 
          F              C                 Am 
'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal 

 

        F                     Dm 
So may the road we've yet to take 
        F                 Dm 
Leave a smile across our face 
        F                    C             Am    
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind

We still belong in the cradle of humankind
