Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

orgel):

fifteen people in a crowded room

fifteen people in a silent room

tension builds up and it fills the air

knowing there is someone missing here

like a jewel bumping down the stairs

we've been moving on so let us pray

in celebration of a special mind

and for a friendship of a certain kind

Pre-chorus

for the many who have been here before

 there's so many letting it go

Chorus

 it's golden - what we have

it's golden - can we realize that

can we realize that it shines and it's golden

 it's shining - all the thoughts that we've had

it's sparkling - down the roads on our map

and when we realize that we shine 'till tomorrow

we've been going in and out of style

always guaranteed to raise a smile

if someone tells us we're no longer alive

think we could show them what is in our eyes

Pre-chorus

here's to many who have been here before

 and there's so many letting it go

Chorus
