Intro:
F7    C  F G C

C                      G
The mice tell bedtime stories
F             C
Lullabies turned blue
E7                  Am G   F             C
A crib song for the baby who has figured out the ruse
C                            G             E        F7
I travelled half way 'round the world to tell a story with no end
F               C   
The dirt under a nation
F      G         C
Forsaken, on the mend

Am               Em            F7            C
I could say that for a moment it all made perfect sense
Am                 Em      F        G
No one holding posture, nothing heaven-sent
Am                  Em                  E7           F7
Hold the hand that leads you, there's no god here to believe
  F                C             F  G       C
What matters moves around us in the air we breathe.

Instrumental: 
F    C    F   G  F   E7 Am G F7     F   C   F  G  C

C                    G
There's nowhere left to sit
F                           C
It's the dirt ground or a broke-down bench
E7               Am                  G    F           C
Four walls and a rood- they say the house that Jesus Built
C                  G             E7       F7
A Child knows the kinds of a woman at her end
F                    C
In Song she found salvation
F     G           C
Forsaken, on the mend

Am                       Em           F7       C
I could say that for a moment it all made perfect sense
Am            Em     F          G
No unholy posture, nothing heaven-sent
Am                  Em           E7               F7
Hold the hand that leads you, there's no god here to believe
F                  C                F  G   C
What matters moves around us in the air we breathe
F                   C               F    G    Am        C
What matters moves around us in the air we breathe 

  F   G       C         
In the air we breathe.
