C
In the calling out to one another
Am
Of the lovers up and down the strand
F
In the sound of the waves and the cries
G
Of the seagulls circling the sand
C
In the fragments of the songs
Am
Carried down the wind from some radio
F
In the murmuring of the city in the distance
G
Ominous and low
C Am
I hear the sound of a world where we played
F G
And the far too simple beauty of the promises we made
Am F
If you ever need holding
C G
Call my name, I'll be there
Am F
If you ever need holding
C G
And no holding back, I'll see you through
C Am
Sky blue and black
F G
//music w/o lyrics//
C
Where the touch of the lover ends
Am
And the soul of the friend begins
F
There's a need to be separate and a need to be one
G
And a struggle neither wins
C
Where you gave me the world I was in
Am
And a place I could make a stand
F
(And) I could never see how you doubted me
G
When I'd let go of your hand
C Am
Yeah, and I was much younger then
F
And I must have thought that I'd have known
G
If things were going to end
Am F
And the heavens were rolling
C G
Like a wheel on a track
Am F
And our sky was unfolding
C G
And it'll never fold back

Music Break = C Am F G x 4
F
I'd have fought the world for you
C G
(I'd have fought the world for you)
F C G
If I thought that you wanted me to
F C G
Or put aside what was true or untrue
F G
If I'd known that's what you needed
G C
What you needed me to do
C Am
But the moment has passed by me now
F
To have put away my pride
G
And just come through for you somehow
Am F
If you ever need holding
C G
Call my name, I'll be there
Am F
If you ever need holding
C G
And no holding back, I'll see you through
C
You're the color of the sky
Am
Reflected in each store-front window pane
F
You're the whispering and the sighing
G
Of my tires in the rain
C Am
You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do
F G C
Yeah and I'll never stop looking for you
Am F G

F G
In the sunlight and the shadows

And the faces on the avenue

That's the way love is

That's the way love is
Am F
That's the way love is
