G                     D
Easy silence that you make for me
     A                                 G             D
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
        G                     D 
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
        A                         G            D

Bm
Breathe in sanctuary in the
 
G                     D
Easy silence that you make for me

It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
        G                     D 
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
        A                         G            D
And the way you keep the world at bay for me

The way you keep the world at bay

G         |         |          |
Children lose their youth too soon
D         |       |      |
Watching war made us immune
    A         |       |        |
And I've got all the world to lose
    Bm
But I just want to hold on to the

And the way you keep the world at bay for me
 
G                     D
Easy silence that you make for me

It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
