Subject: CRD: Common Bond       The Kennedys      Chords/Lyrics

The Kennedys            Common Bond  written by Pete Kennedy
                                                Maura Kennedy

Maura Kennedy   vocals/acoustic guitar
Pete Kennedy    12 string/harmony/bass
Jon Carroll     piano

D                     G      D
The planets seem much closer now
    G             A            D
And brighter than when we were young
D              G    D
Venus Mars and Mercury
    G         G/F#      A
And Saturn at sunset hung
       Bm               F#m
Like a diamond on black velvet
G           G/F#        A                  
Just to the left of the moon
   D         Em      F#m     G
We watch the sunsets hopefully
    D                 A
And feel inside that soon
G         A             D
Something good's gonna happen
G         A                D
Something transcedent and real
G       A       Bm               G        G/F#  A
Maybe a kind of beginning at the end of a long ordeal
   Bm                  F#m       G                G/F#      A
We believe in a higher intention somewhere in the darkness beyond
          D       Em  F#m  G          D            A      D
There's a sign of affirmation that we all share a  common bond
D                        G        D
Last night we talked til midnight then
G              A            D
Went out for a walk on the hill
                     G         D
The moon was just a  crescent and
    G         G/F#        A
The night was silent and still
        Bm                         F#m
But our souls in the darkness were dancing
         G          G/F#     A
Like the lights far below in town
  D       Em    F#m       G          D       A      D
A feeling swept across us there were changes all around
G         A             D
Something good's gonna happen
G         A                D
Something transcedent and real
G       A       Bm               G        G/F#  A
Maybe a kind of beginning at the end of a long ordeal
   Bm                  F#m       G                G/F#      A
We believe in a higher intention somewhere in the darkness beyond
          D       Em  F#m  G          D            A      D
There's a sign of affirmation that we all share a  common bond
