Intro
C F C Am
C F G
C F C Am
C G C

C
As your soul drifts from the plate
F                           C
To the floor where she is standing
C
Rising by the fire
                        G
From the torch you were burning
C
Many years but many tears
F                           C
And many more will soon be arriving

But i drink this final drop
F           G         C
To enter your front door


G
Gone are the days 
        F              C
When I poured from the rain
G
Where once once marched a man 
        F              G
Going down life's drain
C                         F
Oh in time in time you will see 
C                   Am
Just what you mean to me
C                     G    F       C
For I have let an angel clip my wings


C
Come back young volunteer
F                     C
For your war now it is over

Lay down your blackened gun
              G
Not another bad word spoken
C
Come tell of all you've seen
         F                    C
To the soul you're no longer killing

And rest your weary voice
         F      G         C
The last battle song has cried


G
Gone are the days 
        F                C
When I poured from the rain
G                        
Where once once marched a man 
F                    G
Going down life's drain
C                       F
Oh in time in time you will see 
C                  Am
Just what you mean to me
C                 F     G         C
For I have let an angel clip my wings

F                     
Oh an angel clipped my wings 
C
From the back of a broken dream
F                                       G
So no ground need ever break my fall again
C        F         C     Am
For i return to sing this tune 
F                 G         C
From the back of a broken dream


F             G
Time wont hurry back
C            Am
Time wont stall
F            G
Time to forget the past
C                  G
Brush the cobwebs from the wall
C           F          C        Am          
Oh for I survived to sing this tune 
F                  G        C
From the back of a broken dream

F
For an angel clipped my wings 
           C                     
From the back of a broken dream
C                                      G
So no ground need ever break my fall again
C         F      C          Am
For i return to sing this tune
F                   G         C 
From the back of a broken dream


C         F      C          Am
For i return to sing this tune
F                   G         C
