Standard (EADGBE)
..The mystery of death before us..
..Soon every night can bring the light, and close my eyes..
Sometimes life in here's too limiting..
..Sometimes we don't care at all.. Some - times..
Time will change the familiar face, brightest colors fade to gray..
The fear is real, one winter's day brings the clarity..
..I feel that time is catching up with us..
..How many days until its.. hunger is satisfied?
..Living the final golden days, we are the last amazing grays..
Hoping the young will lead the pack now..
..I can feel my heart is beating.. still..
..I can see you with my eyes.. I.. still see..
But I can't run the way my children can..
..Can't accept the helping hand.. Leave me..
You are the strong one, trust in me.. You must lead instead of me, now..
There's no time, don't hesitate.. Or you will also find your fate..
..I feel that time is catching up with us..
..How many days until its.. hunger is satisfied?
..Living the final golden days, we are the last amazing grays..
Hoping the young will lead the pack now..
In the eyes of every newborn, I see the future.. Life is just a phase..
I close my eyes and see them all here beside me, the last amazing grays..
In the eyes of every newborn, I see the past times.. A familiar face..
I close my eyes and see them, waiting for me, amongst the amazing grays..
Instrumental
To replace this section, I'm making a simple modulation
back down to the second key we arrived in (tonic = "Am") ]
Oooooooh.. Ooooooooh.. Ooooooooh.. Ooooooooh..
Mountain sings to me for this last time..
Marking the moment I have found my place..
I closed my eyes and joined them..
Guarding the young, amongst the amazing grays..
