[Intro 1]
[Am][D][D5][F][E]
[Am][Dm][Am][F][Am][E][Am]
[F][Am][E]
[Am][F][Am][Dm]
[E]
[Dm][E][D5][Dm][E][F]
As [Am]the sun

[Verse 1]
comes creeping up [C]the mountain
And [G]the wind blows over
from [Dm]the sea[E]
Hey, [Am]we're brought into this land
like [C]tiny particles of sand,
[G]Unsure of who we're smarter than,
[Dm]or what we're meant to[E] be
Oh [Am]the grains sift coarsely through
[C]the hour glass
[G]And collect like their victims in the [Dm]bowl[E]
The ungodly [Am]force of change
[C]erodes all sense of earthly gains
[G]While tending to the mundane
[Dm]will terrorize [E]your soul
And [Am]it's no! It's no [G]use [Em]thinking
that [Am]you're wrong
The pas[G]t is o[Dm]ld an[F]d gone
It's best to move [G]along and find
[Am]your [G]Avalon[Am]
[C][G]

[Verse 2]
[Dm][E]
Well, [Am]I wish that I could
tell you it [C]was easy,
Just take [G]the paved road
right to [Dm]parad[E]ise
But [Am]the truth is my friend,
the pain [C]and suffering never ends
Make [G]amends with medicine,
[Dm]amnesia, [E]and lies
[Am]The grains sift coarsely
through [C]the hour glass
And [G]they pound like
boulders on [Dm]the [E]brain
All those things [Am]you did for fun,
Nev[C]er hurting anyone,
Care[G]less shadows in the sun,
[Dm]just empty and lame
[Am]And it's no,
it's no [G]use [Em]thinking that you'[Am]re wrong
The pas[G]t is o[Dm]ld and go[F]ne
It's best to [Am]move [G]along
and find [Am]your [G]Avalon[Am]

[Verse 3]
It's no [G]use [Em]thinking that you'[Am]re wrong
The pas[G]t is d[Dm]ead and g[F]one
It's best to move [G]along and find [Am]your [G]Avalon[Am]

[Interlude 1]
[E][Am]
[F][Am]
[E][Dm][E][Dm][E][Dm][E]
[F][Am][C][G]
[Dm][E][Am][C][G]
[Dm][E]

[Verse 4]
So now [Am]the day races from [C]the twilight
How [G]the fields are enveloped
by [Dm]the shade[E]
And [Am]the story that you'll tell,
In[C]ventory of your well,
Crack [G]the shell and find the mortar
sil[Dm]ted and d[E]ecayed
And [Am]it's no! It's no [G]use
[Em]thinking that you'[Am]re wrong
The [G]past is [Dm]dead and [F]gone
It's best to move [G]along and
find [Am]your [G]Avalon[Dm][F]
It's best to [C]hurry [G]on and
find [Am]your [Am]Avalon
