Sunrise of Your Smile

VERSE 1
  Em               Bm
Reject the worldly lie that says
      C               D 
That life lies always up ahead
    Em         Bm              C              D
Let power go before control becomes a crust around your soul
  Em                D
Escape the hunger to possess
      C         Em
And soul-diminishing success
       C                G
This world is full of narrow lives
   C                   D
I pray by grace your smile survives


CHORUS
    C                D
For I would wander weary miles
        G           Em
Would welcome ridicule, my child
     C               G              D
To simply see the sunrise of your smile
    C               D
To see the light behind your eyes
      G                  Em
The happy thought that makes you fly
     C                G
Yes, I would wander weary miles
      C              D              G
To simply see the sunrise of your smile


VERSE 2
     Em                 Bm
Now close your eyes and you will see
      C                 D 
Your own unfinished memories
     Em            Bm
Now open them for time is brief 
      C                 D
And you'll be blest beyond belief
    Em                 D
Now glance above you at the sky
        C                Em
There's beauty there to blind the eye
  C                 G
I ask all this then wait a while
   
    C               D
To see the dawning of your smile

CHORUS(2x)
