Smoke And Mirrors Tab

/            
      When I was a boy 
 
      /               
      all the books I read 
 
          
      I followed like a blind man 
 
 
      to heed the words my father said. 
 
 
       
 
                                      
      Those golden summers faded into night, 
 
                       
      words become a dream, 
 
           
      the echoes of my childhood 
 
            
      and where the path is winding. 
 
 
       
 
        
      May God bless you, 
 
                                  
      keep you safe from all harm. 
 
                              
      Oh, may I stand by you always. 
 
        
      Time and motion. 
 
        
      Hands touch, 
 
                                        /   /      / 
      lips find a way to heaven on high. 
 
 
 
 
          /        /     A/ 
 
 
       
 
       /                  
      Watch the children play, 
 
      /                   
      the child becomes a man, 
 
           
      and all the tangled webs we weave, 
 
 
      you swear it as we live and breath. 
 
 
 
 
 
                                        
      We stay together, death until you part. 
 
                         
      Winner takes the prize. 
 
           
      The future's at your finger tips, 
 
        
      right before your eyes. 
 
 
       
 
       
      No more sorrow (smoke and mirrors). 
 
       
      No more nights with no end. (I really learned a lot) 
 
                  
      I see my tomorrows (smoke and mirrors) 
 
 
       
 
 
                          
      And nothing from nothing. 
 
                       
      And ashes to ash  es, they say. 
 
                                 
      All the more that you reach out 
 
                            
      the more that it runs away. 
 
 
       
 
                    
      Smoke and mirrors. 
 
                    
      Smoke and mirrors. 
 
 
       
 
      
 
                                                        
                         (No more goodbyes)            (No   lies) 
      That's all I ever got,              smoke and mirrors. 
 
                                                         
      (you find     your        way there heaven      on high) 
           She show me what she's got,         smoke and mirrors. 
 
 
       
 
      
         /    /        /           
 
       
 
 
        
      May God bless you, 
 
        
      keep you safe from all harm. 
 
                     
      I stand by you always. 
 
 
       
 
        
      Time and motion (smoke and mirrors) 
 
        
      Hands touch,  
 
                                                              /   / 
           (that's all I ever got)       (smoke and mirrors) 
      lips find        a    way to heaven       on     high . 
 
 
       
 
       
      No more sorrows 
 
 
      (I really learned a lot, smoke and mirrors) 
 
                              
      No more nights with no end. 
 
 
      (She show me what she's got, smoke and mirrors) 
 
                         /   / 
      I rise or I fall. 
 
 
       
 
       
      No more goodbyes. 
 
 
      (She really makes me hot, smoke and mirrors) 
 
                             
      No lies, you find a way there, 
 
                 
      heaven on high.
