The Pearl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]One, two, three

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 2]
Oh, [G]the dragons are gonna
fly tonight
They're circling low and in[D]side tonight
[G]It'[Em]s another round[C]
in the [G]losing fight
Out [D]along the great divide [G]tonight

[Verse 3]
[G]We are aging soldiers in
an ancient war
Seeking out some half re
[D]membered [G]shore[Em]
We drink our [C]fill and still
we [G]thirst for more
Asking if there's no [D]heaven
what is this hunger for?
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]
Our path is worn our feet are [G]poorly [C]shod
We lift up our prayer
[G]against the [D]odds
[Dsus4]And fear [D]the s[Dsus4]i lence i[D]s the voice o[G]f God,
of [D]God, of God
[G]

[Verse 5]
And we [C]cry [G]Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
[C]we [G]cry Hallel[Em]ujah

[Interlude 2]
[C][G][D][G]

[Verse 6]
Sorrow is [G]constant and
the joys are brief
The seasons come and bring
no [D]sweet [G]relief[Em]
Time is a [C]brutal but a [G]careless thief
Who takes our [D]lot but leaves
behind the grief
[G]

[Verse 7]
[C]
It is the heart that kills [G]us in the end
[C]Just one more old broken
[G]bone that cannot [D]mend
As it was now and ever [C]shall be amen,
[G]ame[D]n, amen
[G][D][G]

[Verse 8]
And we [C]cry [G]Hallelujah,
[C]Hallelu[G]jah, we cry Hal[Em]lelujah

[Verse 9]
So [C]there'll [G]be [D]no [G]guiding
light [D]for you and [G]me
We are not sail[C]ors [G]lost out
[D]on [C]the[G] sea[Em]
We were always [C]headed
toward [G]eternity
Hoping [D]for a glimpse of Galilee
[G]

[Verse 10]
[C]Like falling stars from the
uni[G]verse we are [C]hurled
Down through the long loneli
[G]ness of the wor[D]ld
Until we behold [C]the pain be
[G]come [C]the [G]pearl
[D]The pearl
The pearl
[G]

[Verse 11]
Crying [C]Hallelujah, [G]Hallel[C]ujah,
[G]we cry[Em] Hal[C]lelujah[G][D][G]
We cry [C]Hallelujah, [G]Hallel[C]ujah,
[G]we cry[Em] Hal[C]lelu[G]jah
We cry [C]Hallelujah, [G]Hallel[C]ujah,
[G]we cry[Em] Hal[C]lelu[G]jah
