SOL DO SOL
RE LAm DO
VERSE:
SOL
now we can say
DO SOL
that nothings lost
RE
and only change
LAm RE
brings round the prophecy
SOL
well now it's melting
DO SOL
the solid frost
RE LAm
was once a veil on greener landscapes
DO
we would see
BRIDGE:
RE DO
beneath my surface
SOL
the waters heating
RE LAm
the steam comes up and out the tears
DO
you see me shine
SOL DO SOL
for every strange and bitter moment
RE DO SOL
there was never a better time
VERSE: (same)
for every pleasure
exacts its pain
how you hurt me
how you were good to me
beneath my window
a mournful train
that makes me smile
at my bad poetry
BRIDGE:(same)
but beneath my surface
a song is rising
and it may be simple
well it hides its true intent
we may be looking for our deliverence
but it has already been sent
MIDDLE:
DO
it's in the nightfall
SOL
when the light falls
FA#
and what you've seen
DO
isn't there anymore
DO
it's in our blind trust
SOL
love will find us
LAsus DO RE
just like it has before
[instrumental]
VERSE: (same)
they're sending soldiers
to distant places
x's and o's
on someones drawing board
like green and plastic
but with human faces
and they want to tell you
it's a merciful sword
BRIDGE:(same)
but with all the blood
newly dried in the desert
can we not fertilize the land with something else
there is no nation
by god exempted
lay down your weapons
and love your neighbor as yourself
MIDDLE: (same)
it's in the nightfall
when the light falls
and what you've seen
isn't there anymore
it's through our blind trust
love will find us
just like it has before
