B                          Am
I asked my neighbour what time is it
B                               C
Time you know you can't get it back
B            Am
What's a man anyhow
B                   C
If not alone collecting facts
B                       Am
Well I am love through sickness
B                      C
Today I'm courage at the track

G                 D
It's so peaceful here
C
No one to fuck it up
G                     D
I could lay here for hours and hours
C
Not asking for much

Married to the sunshine in my mind
I was floating away
(After the longest day)
I can see all the flowers in full bloom
I wish I could last and stay

Chorus:
Oh well, living in the darkest hour
I am the fortress at Nazaré
Above the raging sound

B                    C
Somebody came by to say hi
                         B C
And we washed the day down

Chorus:
Missed the end of the world
And that was just fine
Saw my family for the holidays
and we had a good time
I am the gentle day's end after all that noise
I am the bull that stood and stared
after the cavalry arrived

I am the perfume memory
Sweetness in her smile
I could lay here for hours
Or I could lay here for a while
I asked my neighbour what time is it
Time you know you can't get it back
Why we all so miserable?
Oh, that's right
Nobody ever comes back

Chorus:
Well I am love through sickness
Today I'm courage at the track
I'm the hand that feeds you
I'm the hallowed road back home

Oh well, living in the darkest hour
Oh well, living in the darkest hour

It's so peaceful here, no one to fuck it up
I could see through miles, miles
