The night is so wild____, and downstairs the child is sleeping, her spirit is free,

But where are the heroes, where are the dreams
Am D
That I had___, when I was young,
F C
Am I hoping in vain, just to think
Esus4 - E
She could change anything?

Am - Em/G
Well I'm counting on you,

But you are not___ alone,
C/G G
When this is your world,
E7b9 Am - Em/G - F - Esus4 - E
And I'm counting on you;

Come to me, turn to me, give me your eyes
When you see the mysteries of time,
Here there are those who just live in the past
They will never let history lie,
And this sad little island is breaking my heart
With its dark shades of green,
And as hard as I try, I just cannot see why this should be...
I'm counting on you,


There is so much to know,
There is so far to go,
But you are not alone,
When this is your world,
C - G - F
And I'm counting on you,
C - G - F
I'm counting on you,
C/G - G - E7b9 - Am
