Miracle of life (video)

E - B7 - E

E A E

1. There is more than colour in a painting,

E B7

there is more than music in a song,

E A E

there is more than marble in a statue,

E B7 E

there is more than strength in being strong.

E A E

There is more to man than work and pleasure,

E A B7

there is more than woman in a wife,

E A E

in a child much more than you can measure,

E B7 E

celebrate the miracle of life. + E - B7 - E

E A E

2. And a river's more than rushing water,

E B7

home is more than simply where we dwell,

E A E

and a mountain's more than rocks and boulders,

E B7 E

someone's story more than words can tell.

E A E

All these things are there for us to wonder,

E A B7

if we take our mind from daily strife,

E A E

for a while put other thoughts asunder,

E B7 E

celebrate the miracle of life. + E - B7 - E

E A E

3. This old world is more than flesh and metal,

E B7

more than ears can hear and eyes can see,

E A E

precious like a diamond every petal,

E B7 E

and it is all given us for free.

E A E

There are ties that bind us all together,

E A B7

and if you can cut some with a knife,

E A E

there are others that you cannot sever,

E B7 E

celebrate the miracle of life. + E - B7 - E

E A E

4. It's a gift that we can only borrow,

E B7

and we pass it on when we are done,

E A E

what has been will also be tomorrow,

E B7 E

even when the last of us has gone.

E A E

For though history can be forsaken,

E A B7

and no music made with broken fife,

E A E

still this moment now cannot be taken,

E B7 E

celebrate the miracle of life.
