Standing by Vnv Nation

Super easy stuff, but it sounds very pretty on acoustic. Enjoy!


Em               D
Eyes betray the soul
             Em
And bear its thinking
                          D              Em
Beyond words, they say so many things to me

           G              D
A stranger here, reborn it seems
        Em
Awaking wonders deep in me
                                  D
If nothing's ventured, nothing's gained
          Em
So I must seize the day

[chorus 1]
             G              D
And fighting time, so hard I pray
            Em
That this moment lasts forever
             G                   D
And will the world stay standing still
             Em
At least for me
           G               D
Through my eyes, stare into me
          Em
I bare my heart for all to see
        G                  D
With my face turned to the sun
           Em
There ever standing still

          Em            D
It wasn't you, it wasn't me
           Em
It wasn't anything
                      D
It was a day so long awaited
      Em
And a chance to be as me

          G                   D
I let the wind run through my hands
         Em
Before I turned to walk away
                          D               Em
In distant days, I long to sense it all so clear

[chorus 2]
             G               D
And fighting time, so much I ask
             Em
I will this moment last forever
               G                         D
Though seasons change, things come to pass
          Em
Remain inside of me

         Em                  D
I had no faith, before that time
       Em
In any vow or deed
              D                     Em
Days followed days, and years were meaningless
            G          D
Despite the wisdom of defeat
           Em
I bore my heart for all to see
             G
The wonders I had seen
D            Em
The wonders I had seen

[repeat chorus 1 and 2]
