This Is How I Know
by Ron Sexsmith

Capo 5
Intro: Dm - C D

Verse
D A G A
From the darkness to a seed of light,

D A G A
From a garden to a sheet of ice.

F#m Em
Feel you move in every sunrise

F#m Em
In the town with all the leaves;

G A D
This is now I know you're near me.


D A G A
From the ashes of a broken home

D A G A
I sent a message to the great unknown.

F#m Em
Though the music on the radio

F#m Em
Came to set me free;

G A D
This is how I know you hear me.


Refrain
D Cmaj7 D
This is how I know the trials are not in vain.

D Cmaj7 D
This is how I know We'll rise and love again.

D Dm C D
This is how I know.

Instrumental (same chords as the verse)
Refrain

Verse
D A G A
From a moment to a sea of days,

D A G A
From an ocean to single wave.

F#m Em
Out of nothing came the miracle

F#m Em
That brought us into being;

G A D
This is how I know it will be.

G A
This is how I know,

Bm E
This is how I know,

G A D
This is how I know it will be.
