Amen Omen

Ben Harper

	Am	F	C	G

	Am	F
What	started as a	whisper

	C	G
Slowly	turned into a	scream

	Am	F
	Searching for an	answer

	C	G
Where the	question is un	seen

I don't know where you came from

And I don't know where you've gone

Old friends become old strangers

Between the darkness and the dawn

I still hear you saying

All of life is a chance

And is sweetest

When at a glance

But I live a hundred

Lifetimes in a day

But I die a little

In every breath that I take

I listen to a whisper

Slowly drift away

Silence is the loudest

Parting word you never say

I put your world

Into my veins

Now a voiceless sympathy

Is all that remains
