Intro: Em G D Em  

verse 1  

         Em            G       D          Em  
Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things  
             Em                 G            Em  
She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook  
               Em             G                         D     Em  
The fact that they'd been blindly deceived by those who preach and pray and teach  
         Em                  G                   Em  
But she falls short and the night explodes with laughter  

  
           Em            G      D         Em  
Don’t you come here and say I didn’t warn you  
          Em         G       Em  
About the way your world can alter  
         Em      G         D            Em  
And oh, how you try to command it all, still  
        Em                  G                   Em  
Every single time it all shifts one way or another  



           C         G               D           Em  
And I’m a goddamn coward, but then again so are you  
         C       G       D        Em  
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar  
       C         G      D       Em  
As we evaded and hollering for you  
       C      G     D Em  
And I never really knew, what to do

verse 2 
  
        Em                G               D          Em  
Now I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable  
             Em        G         Em  
That I could read you just like a book  
       Em      G          D             Em  
For now I can only guess what’s coming next  
   Em             G        Em  
By examining your timid smile  
         Em           G        D Em  
And the ways that the old, old wind, blowin’ you back around  

  
          C        G              D           Em  
And I’m a goddamn fool, but then again so are you  
         C       G         D     Em  
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar  
        C               G     D       Em  
Has me singing out and searching for you  
       C     G      D Em  
And I never really knew, what to do

Bridge 
  
Em           D            C                Em  
Sometimes I wish I could find my rose mary hill  
  Em             D           C                     Em  
I sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I’d sing  


          C          G        D               Em  
And every once in a while I’d sing a song for you  
           C               G                 D             Em  
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea  
          C                                  Em  
And if I wanted it to, it would lead you back to me  

   
        C      G         D       Em  
And the lion’s roar, the lion’s roar  
    C             G       D       Em  
Is something that I have heard before  
   C          G         D       Em  
a children’s tale, the lonesome wail  
Em   G    D           Em  
of a liiiiion’s roar
