[Intro] Am  G  F

[First Part]

Am                      F
We see a mother with no child
Am                 G
We meet a stranger poor, exiled
F                     Am
How`s the heart while it still beats?
G
Asks a no-one
Em
Another John Doe

Am                F
Sorrow hides well in your shell
Am                G
A fellow man with hurt to spare
F
Dear one
             Am
Here I am to share the fear
          G
An act of kindness
           Em
Without an amen

[Chorus]

          Am
How`s the heart
               G
Underneath the silence?
          F
How`s the one
                Em
Drowning in the mire?
       F              Em
Let us sound a human paean
     Dm
Come in, the fire`s warm
         C                   G
Burn the rope and dance some more

( Am  F  G )

[Segunda Parte]

Am                     F
We met where the cliff greets the sea
Am              G
Shared a story, took the leap
F               Am
Rose up rooted, hid a note
    G
You know where
       Em
You`ve been there

Am                   F
Now there`s one who came from me
Am                G
A child of light, another tale
     F
Dear one
                    Am
Night will come but not to stay
G
Why?
Em
The answer`s in the

[Chorus]

          Am
How`s the heart
               G
Underneath the silence?
          F
How`s the one
                Em
Drowning in the mire?
       F              Em
Let us sound a human paean
     Dm
Come in, the fire`s warm
         C                   G
Burn the rope and dance some more

[Bridge]

Eb            Bb
Fair winds my love
Cm              Gm
Fly towards the calm
Ab          Cm
Fly utterly lost
F                 Ab
Towards a beating heart
          Cm
A beating heart

Dm
How is that heart

Underneath the silence?
Bb
How is the one

Drowning in the mire?
       Dm
Let us sound a human paean
        Bb             Dm
Come on in, the fire`s warm

[Chorus]

          Dm
How`s the heart
               C
Underneath the silence?
          Bb
How`s the one
                Am
Drowning in the mire?
       Bb              Am
Let us sound a human paean
     Bb
Come in

          Dm
How`s the heart
               C
Underneath the silence?
          Bb
How`s the one
                Am
Drowning in the mire?
       Bb              Am
Let us sound a human paean
     Gm
Come in, the fire`s warm
         F                   C
Dull the blade and dance some more

          Dm
How`s the heart
               C
Underneath the silence?
          Bb
How`s the one
                Am
Drowning in the mire?
       Bb              Am
Let us sound a human paean
     Gm
Come in, the fire`s warm
         F                   C
Burn the rope and dance some more
