| (verse 2): |
| Like sheep without a shepherd |
| Don't know how to be alone |
| So we wander 'round this desert |
| Wind up following the wrong gods home |
| The flock cries out for another |
| They keep answering that bell |
| One more starry eyed messiah |
| Meets a violent farewell |
| Learn to be still |
| Learn to be still |

| Now the flowers in your garden |
| Bb | |
| They don't smell so sweet so sweet |

| Maybe you'd forgotten |
| Dm | C | |
| The heaven lying | at your feet |

| Verse 3: |
| There's so many contradictions |
| In all these messages we send |
| Keep asking how do I get out of here |
| Where do I fit in |
| Though the world is torn and shakin' |
| Even if your heart is breakin' |
| It's waiting for you to awaken |
| Someday you will |
| Learn to be still |
| (F Bb repeated over and over till end of song). |
| Learn to be still |
| Just keep on running |
| Keep on running.... |
