[Intro]
D# D#sus4 D# (x4)
[Verse 1]
D# A# D# G#
The past comes upon you like smoke on the air, You can smell it and find
A# D#
yourself gone
G# A# Cm G# D#
To a place that you lived without worry or care, Isn't that where we all once
G#
came from
D# A# D# G#
Green leaves and tall trees and stars overhead, And the sound of the world
A# D#
through the screen
G# A# Cm G#
But now you sleep with the covers pulled over your head, And you never
A# D#
remember to dream
[Chorus]
G# D# A# Cm G# A# Cm
You think you're just standing still, One day you'll get up that hill
G# D# A# D# G#
In the age of miracles, There’s one on the way
[Verse 2]
D# A# D# G#
Greenland is melting, the west is on fire, But don't ever stop praying for
A# D#
rain
G# A# Cm G# D#
It's a curious place between hope and desire, Different gods, but the prayer
G#
is the same
D# A# D# G#
And thousand-year storms seem to form on a breeze, Drowning all living things
A# D#
in their paths
G# A# Cm G#
And when a small southern town finds a rope in a tree, We're all once again
A# D#
trapped in the past
[Chorus]
G# D# A# Cm G# A# Cm
It seems we're just standing still, One day we'll get up that hill,
G# D# A# D# G# A#
In the age of miracles, There's one on the way
[Solo]
G# D# A# Cm G# A# Cm, G# D# A# D# G# , A#, G# G#
[Verse 3]
D# A# D# G#
We can fly through space with the greatest of ease, We can land in the dust
