VERSE 1:
(Bass plays D pedal next 16 bars)
   Asus   Am11  Csus
    Animation
                    G5(9)
    breathes a cloudless mind
   Asus   Am11  Csus
    Fascination
                   G5(add9)
    leaves the doubting blind
   Asus          Am11       Csus4       G5(9)
    Until the circle breaks and wisdom lies ahead
   Asus              Am11    Csus
    the faithful live Awake
                   G5(9)
    the rest remain misled

   Bb             Gm             Dm      C
    Some will transcend spinning years      Whoa.
   Bb         Gm        Dm      C
    One as if time disappears

CHORUS:
   A5         E5
    Innocence faded
   B5               A5  G#
    the mirror falls behind you
   A5       E5
    Trinity jaded
   B5                 E5  A5
    I break down walls to find you

   D5          Csus2/G
    Callow and vain
   F5/C             G5             D5
    fixed like a fossil, shrouding pain
                Csus/G
    Passionless stage
   F5/C          G5
    Distant like brothers
            D5/A         C5/G
    Wearing apathetic displays
            F5/C               G5
    Sharing flesh like envy in cages
    D5/A
    Condescending
    C5/G             F5/C      G5
    Not intending to end

    Some will transcend spinning years
    One as if time disappears

    Innocence faded
    the mirror falls behind you
    Trinity jaded
    I break down walls to find you

   E      B        G/E   D/A A
    Beginnings get complicated
        F       C/F G/C   Dsus   D
    the farther we  pro - gress
   E    B        G/E  D/A   A
    Opinions are calculat - ed
      F       C/F G/C   Dsus   D
    Immune to o - pen - ness

   Asus2   A/C# E5/B     E
    Beyond the  circle's edge
          G5/D      G5  Asus     Esus
    We're driven by her blessings
   Gsus Asus Bsus   Esus2
    Forever  hesi - tating
    D5                 B5
    Caught beneath the wheel

CHORUS:
    Innocence faded
    the mirror falls behind you
    Cynically jaded
    The child will crawl to find you.
