It G came to pass that A solid rock did Bm part for Em humble A life

Eb Once upon a Ebmaj7 time there was confusion
G# Disappointment, Bb fear and disillusion
Eb Now there’s hope re-Ebmaj7 born with every morning
G# See the future Bb clearly at its dawning

Eb7 Forever drifting slowly to-G# wards a hazy Bb emptiness
Whilst Eb water slips Fm into the sea
The G# father’s sad to Bb see it’s free

As G# shadows creep to-Bb wards their master Eb night Eb7
It G# came to pass that Bb trees defied the Cm wind who Fm shook their Bb leaves
And G# as the peace des-Bb cended all a-Eb round Eb7
It G# came to pass that Bb nature’s creatures Cm came to Fm face the Bb world

The A father’s sad to B see it’s free
