[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G]

[Chorus 1]
[D]In every hour of every day, I'm [A]learning [D]more
The [D]more I learn, the less I know a[C]bout be[G]fore
The less I know, the more I want
to [C]look around
Dig[G]ging deep for [C]clues [G]on higher ground

[Verse 1]
[D]Moon and stars sit way up hig[A]h
Earth and [D]trees beneath them lie
The wind blows fragrant lulla[A]by
To cool [D]the night for you and I

[Verse 2]
[D]On the wing the birds fly fre[A]e
Levia[D]than tames angry sea
The flower waits for honey[A]bee
The sun[D]rise wakes new life [D]in me

[Chorus 2]
[D]In every hour of every day, I'm [A]learning [D]more
The [D]more I learn, the less I know a[C]bout be[G]fore
The less I know, the more I want
to [C]look around
Dig[G]ging deep for [C]clues on high[G]er ground

[Verse 3]
[D]The fishes swim while rivers run[A]
Through fields to [D]feast my eyes upon
Intoxicated drinking [A]from
The loving [D]cup of burning sun

[Verse 4]
[D]In dreams I'll crave familiar tas[A]te
Of whispered [D]rain on weary face
Of kisses sweet and warm em[A]brace
Another [D]time, another place

[Chorus 3]
[D]In every hour of every day, I'm [A]learning [D]more
The [D]more I learn, the less I know a[C]bout be[G]fore
The less I know, the more I want
to [C]look around
Dig[G]ging deep for [C]clues on high[G]er ground

The flower waits for honey[A]bee
The sunrise [D]wakes new life in me
