A B E E7 As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth A B C#m F#m B It came to pass that beauty settled there forever more And as the steam clings close to things to come It came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life Chorus: F F7 A# Once upon a time there was confusion C Disappointment, fear and disillusion F F7 A# Now there's hope reborn with every morning C F See the future clearly at its dawning A# C Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness F C7 Whilst water slips into the sea A# C The father's sad to see it's free As shadows creep towards their master night It came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves And as the peace descended all around It came to pass that nature's creatures came to face the world Chorus - x2 Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion.
