Title: “Pages in the Wind”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am G
Turn the pages, in the wind,
Dm Am
each one a tale, that’s been penned.
Am G
Stories of old, stories of new,
Dm Am
All in ink, black and blue.

(Chorus)
F C
We are the tales that we tell,
G Am
In every book, in every cell.
F C
Read between the lines, you will find,
G Am
A piece of heart, a piece of mind.

(Verse 2)
Am G
Novels of love, and of pain,
Dm Am
In every story, something to gain.
Am G
From Hemingway to old Bronte,
Dm Am
In every word, we are set free.

(Chorus)
F C
We are the tales that we tell,
G Am
In every book, in every cell.
F C
Read between the lines, you will find,
G Am
A piece of heart, a piece of mind.

(Bridge)
F G
In every chapter, in every phrase,
Am G
We find ourselves, in countless ways.

(Chorus)
F C
We are the tales that we tell,
G Am
In every book, in every cell.
F C
Read between the lines, you will find,
G Am
A piece of heart, a piece of mind.
