Comment:  I haven't figured out the intro, but the rest is quite perfect...
	  So.. Enjoy!   :)



Bm	D	   G       		A 
	Has our conscience shown?
Bm      D	   G			A
	Has the sweet breeze blown?
Bm      D	   G		        A
	Has all the kindness gone?
Bm      D	   G  	 		   
	Hope still lingers on.
A
	I drink myself of newfound pity
A
	Sitting alone in New York City.
		 G
	And I don't know why.


Bm      D      G                A  (2X)
Bm      D      G                A
	Are we listening?
Bm      D      G                A
	Hymns of offering
Bm      D      G                A
	Have we eyes to see
Bm      D      G                
	That love is gathering?	
A
	All the words that I've been reading
A
	Have now started the act of bleeding
     G
	Into one....Into one.


Chorus:

D	                  A	
	So I walk upon high
			     G
	And I step to the edge
			     D	
	To see my world below.
D			     A
	And I laugh at myself
			       C
	While the tears roll down.
				   G
	'Cause it's the world I know. 
				(Bm)
	Oh It's the world I know.
