Verse
C#m
Do you think the stars know,
B
That they’re seen from so far down below?
C#m
Or when the warm wind blows,
B
Does it tell the grass to grow?
[Verse 2]
C#m
Why do you think the birds sing?
B
Do they think that someone’s listening?
C#m
Or do they sing,
B
To try and chase away the snow?
[Verse 3]
C#m
And if the stars hid from the night,
B
Do you think that someone would realize?
C#m
The light had died,
B
Or would they even know?
[Verse 4]
C#m
And if a silence filled the air,
B
Do you think that anyone would even care?
C#m
Would they be aware,
B
Of the mounting snow?
[Chorus 1]
C#m B
We never notice all the green around us until the season’s passed.
C#m B
We never long for the world to slow down until it goes too fast,
C#m B
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
C#m B
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
C#m B
C#m I incomplete?
C#m B C#m B
[Verse 5]
C#m
Do you wonder if the snow knows,
B
It leaves behind a world with room to grow,
C#m
Or when the sun dips low,
B
It gives the moon a chance to glow.
[Verse 6]
C#m
Do you wonder why the sky cries,
B
Through its tears it brings forth greener life,
C#m
Or when it cries,
B
Does it even know?
[Chorus 2]
C#m B
We never listen for the songs around us until the sound is still.
C#m B
We never see what our life is worth, and perhaps we never will...
C#m B
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
C#m B
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
C#m B
C#m I incomplete?
[Bridge]
C#m B
And though the sky still cries, and the flowers die,
C#m B
The sun can’t shine if the rains don’t pass by,
C#m A B
Flowers die but still they find new life.
C#m A B
And though I may not shine as bright as the stars.
C#m A B
I refuse to let my fate be set by my scars.
C#m A B
I’ll carry on, and I’ll do it just for me.
C#m A B
I’ll be complete.
[Chorus 1]
C#m B
We never notice all the green around us until the season’s passed.
C#m B
We never long for the world to slow down until it goes too fast,
C#m B
If everything plays a grander part in a fate I’ll never meet,
C#m B
Is my destiny to fade away, have a goal I’ll never reach?
[Chorus 3]
C#m B
We never listen for the songs around us until the sound is still.
C#m B
We never see what our life is worth, and perhaps we never will...
C#m B
If everything plays a grander part in a fate we’ll never meet,
C#m B
I will not let my days slip away, I will rise up on two feet.
C#m B
And I’ll be complete.
