[Verse 1]
C
 Hot sand on toes,
cold sand in sleeping bags,
                       Am9
I've come to know that memories
             G/B
Were the best   things you ever had
C
 The summer shone beat down on bony backs
                           Am9
So far from home where the ocean stood
     G/B               C
Down dust and pine cone tracks
Am9 G/B
C
 We slept like dogs down by the fire side
                 Am9
Awoke to the fog all around us
    G/B                C Am9 G/B
The boom of summer time

[Chorus]
C
 We stood
              G/B
Steady as the stars in the woods
            C
So happyhearted
                               G/B
And the warmth rang true inside   these bones
       Am9                  Gsus4
As the old pine fell we sang
                     C    Am9 G/B
Just to bless the morning.

[Verse 2]
C
 Hot sand on toes,
cold sand in sleeping bags,
                      Am9
I've come to know the friends around you
    G/B
Are all you'll always have
C
 Smoke in my lungs, or the echoed stone
Careless and young,
Am9                    G/B
free as the birds that fly

[Interlude]
               C     Am9 G/B
With weightless souls

[Chorus]
C
 now.
We stood
              G/B
Steady as the stars in the woods
            Am9
So happyhearted
                               Gsus4           C
And the warmth rang true inside     these bones
We stood
              G/B
Steady as the stars in the woods
            C
So happyhearted
                               G/B
And the warmth rang true inside   these bones
       Am9                  Gsus4
As the old pine fell we sang

[Bridge]
                     C    Am9 Gsus4 C Am9 Gsus4
Just to bless the morning.
        C
We grow, grow, steady as the morning
               Am9        Gsus4
We grow, grow, older still
        C
We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn
               Am9        Gsus4
We grow, grow, older still
        C
We grow, grow, steady as the flowers
               Am9        Gsus4
We grow, grow, older still
        C
We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn
               Am9        Gsus4
We grow, grow, older still
