 (1)                                 (1)
I often said my my problems with too much to say
(1)          (1)
Good things flow
    (1)                          (1)
The way to cover topics God's forgot about
(1)        (1)
Life beams low
     Bm
On short wave
     A/Bm A
On short wave
(1)                  (1)
The only real memory I'll ever have

(1)x6

  (1)                           (1)
In unrealistic boyhoods we made no mistakes
    (1)     (1)
In what we chose
    (1)
The mosses green on slippery
            (1)
black rocks we would break
(1)      (1)
Far too close
     Bm
To short wave
     A/Bm A
To short wave
        C                       A
I have survived the acid test to reach you
           C                             A
I'm never sightless to the outstretch of your arms
                  C
Wearing it's disguise in exiting
    F             Em
the idols blight controlling
F                   Em
All encompassing cajoling
 F                    Em
Wear our wings of no bird
 F
You have your rainbow waiting
     Bm   A/Bm
On short wave
     A    C
On short wave

(1)x2

   (1)                   (1)
The only real memory I'll ever have
