[Riff 1] x1
[Riff 1] x2 w/ lyrics:
I am born; I am me.
I am new; I am free.
Look at me; I am young.
Sight unseen; Life unsung.
[Riff 2] x5
[Riff 3] x2
[Riff 3] x2 w/ lyrics:
My eyes have just been opened and they're opened very wide.
Images around me don't identify inside.
Just one blur I recognize, the one that soothes and feeds.
My way of life is easy, and as simple are my needs. [strike A5]
[Riff 4] x2
[Riff 4] x2 w/ lyrics:
Yet my eyes are drawn towards the mountain in the east.
Fascinates and capitaves; gives my heart no peace.
D C
The mountain holds the sunrise in the prison of the night,
D C Fmaj7
till bursting forth from rocky chains, the valley... floods...
G6
with light.
[Riff 3] x2
[Riff 3] x2 w/ lyrics:
Living one long sunrise, for to me all things are new.
I've never watched the sky grow pale, or strolled through fields of dew.
I do not know of dust to dust, I live from breath to breath.
I live to climb that mountain to the Fountain of Lamneth. [strike A5]
