D               A                Bm                   (doux)
With nothing to do, you'd waste away
   G
Obscured in exile
They've witnessed the times you've gone astray
Whose fault now you're thinking

D                      A
Ah, there's nothing to prove

*A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby*

  And it feels now                                    (riff)
  Just like heaven's coming down

So strange are the ways, they all have changed
Still life, it stayed the same
A break from the past could make it last
Oh, maybe just a little longer

Now there's nothing to prove
*A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby*

  And it feels now
  Just like heaven's coming down
  Your soul shakes free
  As its conscience hits the ground

  w/ You surrender
     Love under will
     Rest assured
     Baby, you're adored                              < <

  And it feels now
  Just like heaven's coming down
  Your soul shakes free
  As its conscience hits the ground

  These signs, this fate
  Takes a path you didn't choose
  Stay strong, keep faith
  There's a change that's coming through

              D               G  
  (Feels like heaven's coming down)  x 3
         Hold on           my love

  Feels like heaven's coming down
