[Part 1]

Em                         C
   When the colour of the night
Em                           C
   And all the smoke for one life
Dsus2 Am                        Dsus2
         Gives way to shaky movements
                Am
Improvisational skills
                       C
A forest of whispering speakers
                    Em7
Let's swear that we will
             Cmaj
Get with the times
                       Em7
In a current health to stay
                     Cmaj
Let's get friendship right
                Am7
Get life day-to-day
                         Cmaj
In the forget-yer-skates dream
                        G
Full of countervailing woes
                     D
In diverse-as-ever scenes
                          C
Proceeding on a need-to-know
             D       C
In a face so full of meaning
             D       C
As to almost make it glow

                    D          C
O' for a good life, just might have to weaken
                      G
And find somewhere to go
                     Cmaj
Go somewhere we're needed
                  G
Find somewhere to grow
                       Cmaj
Grow somewhere we're needed

[Part 2]

Em                         C
   When the colour of the night
Em                          C
   And all the smoke in one life
Am                        Dsus2
   Gives way to shaky movements
                Am

Grow somewhere we're needed
                  G
Find somewhere to go

Let's go somewhere we're needed
                  G
Find somewhere to grow
                  Cmaj
Go where we are needed


[Outro]

Am                          Dsus2
   In the forget-yer-skates dream
                          Am
You can hang your head in woe
                     Dsus2
In diverse-as-ever scenes
                      Em   C
You know which way to go

Em  C
Em
