Intro 1

Verse 1
Em 
 (E minor) Guarding the carcass,
we stripped and devided
A 
Em 
To  (A major) carve up  (E minor) and covet they
wait there alone
G 
Keeping the secret  (G major) the
Em 
 (E minor) rest have forgotten
A 
Em 
And  (A major) staring in silence  (E minor) from
sockets of stone
Built and obeyed with the best
of intentions
A 
Stranger  (A major) than truth and
Em 
as lost  (E minor) and alone
Stranded like dogs in a star-
spangled manger
A 
 (A major) No good to nothing not
Em 
 (E minor) even their own

Verse 2

Chorus: Holy- O-

my God- I

Can't see the stars in the sky

For the sun in my eye

Verse 3
Em 
 (E minor) She's like a dream that
a world quit believin'
A 
Em 
 (A major) Caught in the action  (E minor) back to the sea
How many more might have
come from that mountain?
A 
 (A major) Barely the creatures
Em 
they struggled  (E minor) to be
Surely the death of so grand an illusion
A 
Em 
 (A major) Left us with legends too  (E minor) great to ignore
Stone- cut survivors of
ancient dimensions
A 
Em 
 (A major) Lost in the wonder they came  (E minor) 
to explore.
