Capo on 5th
Intro
Em G D Em
Em G D Em
Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things
Em G Em
She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook
Em G D Em
The fact that they'd been blindly to see by those who preach and pray and teach
Em G Em
But she falls short and the night explodes with laughter
Em G D Em
Don’t you come here and say I didn’t warn you
Em G Em
About the way your world can alter
Em G D Em
And oh, how you try to command it all, still
Em G Em
Every single time it all shifts one way or another
Chorus
C G D Em
And I’m a goddamn coward, but then again so are you
C G D Em
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
C G D Em
As we evaded and hollering for you
C G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And I never really knew, what to do
Em G D Em
Em G D Em
Now I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable
Em G Em
That I could read you just like a book
Em G D Em
For now I can only guess what’s coming next
Em G Em
By examining your timid smile
Em G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And the ways that the old, old wind, blowin’ you back around
Chorus
C G D Em
And I’m a goddamn fool, but then again so are you
C G D Em
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
C G D Em
Has me singing out and searching for you
C G D(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And I never really knew, what to do
Em G D Em
Em G D Em
A C Em
Sometimes I wish I could find my rose mary hill
A C Em
I sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I’d sing
C G D Em
And every once in a while I’d sing a song for you
C G D Em
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea
C(STRUM ONLY ONCE) Em
And if I wanted it to, it would lead you back to me
Chorus
(STRUM ONLY ONCE ALL)
C G D Em
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar
C G D Em
Is something that I have heard before
C G D Em
a children’s tale, the lonesome wail
D Em
of a liiiiion’s roar
Em G D Em
Em G D Em
