C Em F/C C x2

[Verse 1]
         C
When the all-knowing sea,
         Em
Restless waves and open 
arms,
        F/C
Are obsolete.                       
And I will see you once 
 C
again.
         C
When you whisper to me,
         Em
That the life we want,
                   F/C
Was never meant to be.
And we can live like it\'s 
    C
pretend.

[Chorus]
    G               
And what better time 
      F/C
than now,                       
Could there be to let it 
 C         C
out
G                     F/C
What better time than now,                         
Could there be to call the 
 Am                G
tides into better fortune.

[Verse 2]
         C
When the birds circle \'round,
         Em
Like the vultures that 
have kept you,
       F/C
On the ground.
And the sky is all but 
 C
crying.
       C
On the first day of spring,
       Em
I will melt this wax,
                   F/C
Upon your fettered wing.                        
And to the fiery sun go 
C
flying
    G                
And what better time 
     F/C
than now,
Could there be to let 
   C         C
it out.
G                     F/C
What better time than now,                          
Could there be to call the 
Am                   G
tides into better fortune.

Cold comfort underneath

the sun,
Do you see,

That the waves are growing 
faster,
        C
As they roll.
    Am
The swell, up above,
    Em
Overheard. Like an albatross.
    C
And everything we\'ve ever 
known,
     F          C
Will be all but lost.
Do you see,
      Em
There between the dreams,
            F/C
Of autumn\'s memories.
And would you say that we 
     C
were lying,
   C
To ourselves,
To our needs,
       Em                    
To the countless that depend

I believe that greed is dying.

Could there be to let it out?
G                     F/C
What better time than now,
                          
Could there be to call the 
 Am                   G
tides into better fortune.
