Rose Colored Glasses

	  		
Intro: A 

A 
Long ago he saw the light of day 
Then the wind it blew the man away 
       G 
And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses 
    A  
But I believe the man is going home 

A 
Long ago he set the ship aright 
Then he sailed away into the night 
      G 
And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses 
    A 
But I believe the man is going home 
       G 
And I know that we are more than dust and ashes 
     A                                            A 
And one day we will know what we have known 

            Dm 
But on the dark side 
                    G 
There are times of suffering 
(And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses) 
            Dm 
But as the pages turn 
     F                 Em 
One day we'll learn of everything 
     A                   D           D    C Bm F 
But now we see through glass... 

A 
When the ending came I said goodbye 
I hope to meet him on the other side 
       G 
And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses 
    A 
But I believe we have the greatest hope 
(But I believe we have the greatest hope) 
        
          G 
And I'll sing this as we're scattering the ashes 
A 
I believe the man has gone back home... 
(I believe the man has gone back home) 

           Dm  
But on the dark side 
                    G 
There are times of suffering 
(And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses) 
            Dm 
But as the pages turn 
    F                  Em 
One day we'll learn of everything 
    A                  D 
But now we see through glass... 

F 
This world is not our home 
        Am 
You can live like a rollin' stone 
     Bb                           C 
But you cannot escape with your life 

Dm 
We seek a city on fire 
        C 
With the heart of a child's desire 
        Bb                     C 
We will cross that bridge and enter into life... 

Dm G 

    Dm        G 
Real life...

But on the dark side 
                    A 
There are times of suffering 
           Em 
But as the pages turn 
                       G A 
One day we'll learn of everything 

                Em 
But through the dark years 
                     A 
There are tears and suffering 

           Em 
But as the pages turn

One day we'll burn like lightning

In that city in the sky
