Em C C6 C C6 B 

[Verse 1]

Em
Hush hush
Em 
Don't say a word
    C      C6       C         C6
The faint cries can hardly be heard
 B                             Am 
A storm lies beyond the horizon barely
Em
Don't stop
Em
Sweep through the days
      C   C6         C         C6
Like chil-dren that can't stay awake
B                     Am
Stay here untainted and say

[Chorus]

Em
Stay while the melody's sung
Am
Break like a wave on the run
B      
I do be sure I can't say anymore
       Am           B             Em
I just know that it won't last forever

[Verse 2]

Em
Rush rush
Em
Take me away
     C         C6        C     C6
Like hourglass sand that never escapes
B                              Am
Stars are born and then die but carefree
Em 
A small clock 
Em
that ticks without time
    C       C6     C       C6
And watched by an ocean of eyes
B                  Am 
Ending ascending and then

[Chorus]

Em
Stay while the melody's sung
Am
Break like a wave on the run
B      
I do be sure I can't say anymore
       Am           B            
I just know that it won't last 
       Am           B            Em
I just know that it won't last forever
