Intro: Em  Em  D/F#  G  G  D/F#  Em

Em                      D/F#    G
The sun was setting over Avalon
Bm   C                                  D         G
        The last time we stood in the West
Em                              D/F#    G
Suffering long time angels enraptured by Blake
                Bm      C                       D       G
Burn out the dross, innocence captured again

Em               D/F#           G
Standing on the beach at sunset
Bm    C                         D   G
        All the boats keep moving slow
Em                D/F#    G     
In the glory of the flashing light
Bm    C                 D       G           G  D/F# Em D/F#     
        In the evening's glow        {change fast}
G               C       G       C          Em
When will I ever learn to live in God?
           C    G
When will I ever learn?
G               C       G          C           Em
He gives me everything I need and more
           C    G
When will I ever learn?
Em                  D/F#  G
You brought it to my attention
Bm   C                      D       G
        That everything was made in God
Em                        D/F#          G
Down through centuries of great writings and paintings
Bm   C                D   G
        Everything was in God

Em                           D/F#       G
Seen through architecture of great cathedrals
Bm   C                        D     G
        Down through the history of time
Em              D/F#    G
Is and was in the beginning
Bm   C                      D    G
        And ever more shall ever be
G               C       G       C          Em
When will I ever learn to live in God?
           C    G
When will I ever learn?
G               C       G          C           Em
He gives me everything I need and more
           C    G
When will I ever learn?
Bridge:
C               D/F#
What ever it takes to fulfill His mission
C                       G
That is the way we must go
C                       D/F#
But you've got to do it in your way
C                     D
Tear down the old, bring up the new

Em                         D/F#  G
And up on the hillside it's quiet
Bm    C                                  D           G
        Where the shepherd is tending his sheep
Em                              D/F#  G
And over the mountains and the valleys
Bm   C                          D   G
        And the countryside is so green

Em                      D/F#               G
Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder
Bm    C                            D          G
        You can see everything is made in God   
Em                      D/F#   G
Head back down the roadside
Bm    C                 D       G
        And give thanks for it all
G               C       G       C          Em
