[Intro]
C  Em  F  F (2X)
[Estrofa]
         C 
Was it love or recognition that 
     Em 
has healed this man's condition 
      F 
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that 
      G 
this bird won't fly away 
C 
We can see life hand in hand, 
     Em 
the green, the blue, the rough, the sand 
    F 
And in our time and in our land 
        G 
we'll savor everyday
[Estribillo]
    Am                     C    Em 
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well 
     F 
at least we've learned 
                       G 
some things along the way
[Estrofa]
     C 
You took me from my bubble 
        Em 
knowing my defense was weak 
         F 
And you sat there and you listened 
     G 
any time I chose to speak 
      C 
you gathered from my pleas to  
     Em 
you that I am but a clown 
        F                    G 
And I fear only a hero can defeat 
  
these demons now
[Estribillo]
    Am                     C    Em 
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well 
     F 
at least we've learned some 
  G         C 
tricks of trade
[Instrumental]
Em  F  F  C  Em  F  F
[Estribillo]
Am                                C   Em 
And as time shall inevitably move on, mmmmh well then 
     F 
at least we'll have four strong 
          G 
legs to stand on 
             C 
To keep us alive...
