[Verse 2]
Ab
The wisdom of the word
               Eb
The source of all of creation
Bbm                           C
Ecstasy of devotion in the sound  of every action
Fm                            Db
Striving to hear and see all life, an anomaly
F                              Db
Never lose that wonder, the necessity of mystery
Ab                                Eb
Be drunk with passion and the peaceful rivers of love
Bbm                                  C7
Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves
 
 
[Chorus]
Fm                             Db
When you're grown up in your prime
                         Bbm
Stay away from God and crime
                         Eb          C         Fm
Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world
                               Db
You will learn something every day
                                 Bbm
Don't dip your toes, go all the way
                           Ab             C              Fm
Be the change you want to see and be the man you want to be

Oh dear Rumi,
                Db
The supreme poet of love
    Bbm               C
You move me like the sun
Ab                       Eb
Become the truth and hold it above all
Bbm                                   C
Get lost in the breeze of the trees that stand tall
Ab                                      Eb
Don't you realize that it's all about knowledge and love
Bbm                                 C7
Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves

Dear son
                   F                     Eb                D
I pray that your days are long and your path matches your song
      Gm                   F                            Eb                     D
Your smile is worth every sacrifice in this life, your breath now my reason to go on
   Gm                   F                      Eb               D
I love you more than I ever could imagine for anything on this earth
