Carelessly

G   C   G   C   Em   D


G                 C               D
Umare ta bakari no asahi o atsume te hikaru.
G                  C                   D
Daichi no katasumi, haru matsu fuyu no kage tachi.
C       G      B7     Em
Kaze no koe de, negai utau.
C      Am          D
Midori iro no sora ni.


G           C
Carelessly, we have been living.
G           C
Carelessly, in our forgiving.
G      Em  C       D            G
Endlessly, we will find our way home.

Under every green cathedral where the quiet souls meander,
Falling waters gently whisper, every heart is open now.
And we who are listening, anxious and wondering,
Yearn to know the secrets of her song.

Carelessly, we have been living.
Carelessly, in our forgiving.
Endlessly, we will find our way home.

Kaze no koe de, negai utau.
Midori iro no sora ni.

Carelessly, we have been living.
Carelessly, in our forgiving.
Endlessly, we will find our way home.

Carelessly, we have been living.
Carelessly, in our forgiving.
Endlessly, we will find our way home.

Carelessly, we have been living.
Carelessly, in our forgiving.
Endlessly, we will find our way home.

(Words and music by John Denver, Akihiro Shoji and Kosetsu Minami, 1990)

Notes: I transcribed the Japanese lyrics in romaji in order to align with the chords better, but the original Japanese lyrics are as follows:

生まれたばかりの朝日を集めて光る。
大地の片隅、春待つ冬の影たち。
風の声で、願い歌う。
緑色の空に。
