Em D G Why's it never light on my lawn Am G Bm C D Why does it rain and never say good-day to the new-born Em D G On the big screen they showed us the sun Am G Bm C D But not as bright in life as the real one Am G Bm C D It's never quite the same as the real one Chorus: B F#/B And tell me grey seal B7sus4 How does it feel E/B To be so wise B F#/B To see through eyes B7sus4 E/B That only see what's real B F# A E B Tell me grey seal I never learned why meteors were formed I only farmed in schools that were so worn and torn If anyone can cry, then so can I I read books and draw life from the eye All my life is drawings from the eye Chorus Your mission bells were wrought by ancient men The roots were formed by twisted roots Your roots were twisted then I was reborn before all life could die The phoenix bird will leave this world to fly If the phoenix bird can fly, then so can I Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Am  C  D  E  Em  F#  G  B  Bm  B7  B7sus4  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
