Be Still(Chords)

	        

 Intro:     C    Em    F    C 


C 
  Be still 
                Em 
  And go on to bed 
            F               C 
  Nobody knows what lies ahead 
C 
  And life is short 
                Em 
  To say the least 
                F              C 
  We're in the belly of the beast 

        Am 
  Be still 
              F      
  Wild and young 
C                            G 
  Long may your innocence reign 
                       Am 
  Like shells on the shore 
                             F 
  And may your limits be unknown 
                                C 
  And may your efforts be your own 
                              G 
  If you ever feel you can't take it anymore 


Am                F  
  Don't break character 
                C      G 
  You've got a lot of heart 
Am                         Dm 
  Is this real or just a dream? 
   F             G  Am 
  Rise up like the sun 
   F          G   Am   G   F 
  Labor till the work is done 


C 
  Be still 
                    Em 
  One day you'll leave 
   F                       C 
  Fearlessness on your sleeve 
C                                             Em 
  When you've come back tell me what did you see 
                  F                  C 
  Was there something out there for me? 

       Am 
  Be still 
               F 
  Close your eyes 
C                                G 
  Soon enough you'll be on your own 
                  Am 
  Steady and straight 
                                    F 
  And if they drag you through the mud 
                                     C 
  It doesn't change what's in your blood 

  Over chains 
G 
  When they knock you down 

  
Am                F  
  Don't break character 
                C      G 
  You've got a lot of heart 
Am                         Dm 
  Is this real or just a dream? 
C       Em 
   Be still 
F       C 
   Be still 
C       Em 
   Be still 
F       C 
   Be still 


Am                 F 
  Over rock and chain 
                C 
  Over sunset plain 
                  G 
  Over trap and snare 
                      Am 
  When you're in too deep 
                     F 
  In your wildest dream 
                     C 
  In your made up scheme 
                       G 
  When they knock you down 
                       Am 
  When they knock you down 

  
Am                F  
  Don't break character 
                C      G 
  You've got a lot of heart 
Am                         Dm 
  Is this real or just a dream? 
   F             G  Am 
  Rise up like the sun 
   F          G   Am   G   F 
  Labor till the work is done 
   F             G  Am 
  Rise up like the sun 
   F          G   Am   G   F 
  Labor till the work is done 
   F             G  Am 
  Rise up like the sun 
   F          G   Am   G   F 
  Labor till the work is done 
  
  End on: F
