[Melchior]
Am           C
All that's known,
Am             G
In History, in Science,
Am       C
Overthrown
Am                       G
At school, at home, by blind men.


C           F
You doubt them,
C
And soon they bark and hound you-
D
Till everything you say is just another bad about you.


Am        C
All they say
Am                    G
Is "Trust in What Is Writen."
Am         C
Wars are made.
Am                   G
And somehow that is wisdom.


C             F
Thought is suspect,
C
And money is their idol,
D
And nothing is okay unless it's scripted in their Bible.


C
But I know
G
There's so much more to find-
D                                      Em
just in lookin through myself, and not at them.


C
Still, I know
G
To trust my own true mind,
D                                   Em
And to say: there's a way through this...


Am    C
On I go,
Am                   G
To wonder and to learning-
Am          C       Am                G
name the stars and know their dark returning.


C        F
I'm calling,
C
To know the world's true yearning-
C
The hunger that a child feels for everything they're shown.


C
You watch me-
G
Just watch me-
Em
I'm calling,
D
And one day all will know.


C
You watch me-
G
Just watch me-
Em              C
I'm calling,I'm calling
                      Am
And one day all will know.
