Is there ^Am no sign of light as we ^Em stand in the darkness?
^Am Watching the sun ^G a ^Am rise ^{A9 Am7 A9}
Is there ^Am no sign of life as we ^Em gaze at the waters?
^Am Into the stran ^G gers ^Am eyes ^{A9 Am7 A9}
And ^F who are ^G we to ^C criti ^F cize or
^Dm7 scorn the ^G7 things that they ^Am do? ^{A9 Am7 A9}
For ^F we shall ^G seek and ^C we shall ^F find
Am ^Dm monia ^Em Ave ^Am nue
If we ^Am call for the proof and we ^Em question the answers
^Am Only the doubt ^G will ^Am grow ^{A9 Am7 A9}
Are we ^Am blind to the truth or a ^Em sign to believe in?
^Am Only the wise ^G will ^Am know ^{A9 Am7 A9}
And ^F word by ^G word they ^C handed ^F down
the ^Dm7 light that ^G7 shines to ^Am day ^{A9 Am7 A9}
And ^F those who ^G came at ^C first to ^F scoff,
^Dm Remained be ^Em hind to ^Am pray
Yes ^F those who ^G came at ^C first to ^F scoff,
^Dm remained be ^Em7 hind to ^Am pray
When you ^Am can't hear the rhyme and you ^Em can't see the reason
^Am Why should the hope ^G re ^A main? ^{A9 Am7 A9}
For a ^Am man will be tired and his ^Em soul will grow weary
^Am Living his life ^G in ^Am vain ^{A9 Am7 A9}
And ^F who are ^G we to ^C justi ^F fy
the ^Dm7 right in ^G7 all we ^Am do? ^{A9 Am7 A9}
Un ^F til we ^G seek un ^C til we ^F find
Am ^Dm monia ^Em Ave ^Am nue
^Dm Through all the ^G doubt
^F somehow they ^G knew
And ^F stone by ^G stone they ^C built it ^F high
^Dm7 Until the ^G7 sun broke ^Am through
A ^F ray of ^G hope, a ^C shining ^F light
Am ^Dm monia ^Em Ave ^Am nue
