Verse 1
D
Em
On the edge of the sea,
up at the top of the hill
D
C
Em
Past the signs of decline,
C
Em
withered, covered in filth
D
Em
D
Inside the temple that he built
Em
D
Em
Out of barrels and artifacts
Bm
D
Em
in a city seen so different
D
C
From where it all started at
Time and again
To the family that he used to have
C
Em
And now he looks at toxic waterbeds
C
Em
And drifts away to the day
When they were swimming in a miracle
In a land of opportunity
And beauty that could steal your soul
D
Em
They cleared the roads
D
C
Then they put up the street signs
D
Em
D
They said the sea's mine
D
Em
In a land of time that's left behind,
plans that they built
D
Em
Another testament to fragile lives,
man on a hill
Em
D
standing as still
plans that they built
D
Em
Another testament to fragile lives
D
Em
D
A brief history is shattered
D
Em
D
Em
D
Em
But he's still there
D
Em
D
Em
Yeah, he's still there
Em
D
C
Em
And he's living out of old cans
D
Em
He's the only one
D
Em
Cause every other living so ran
No plans
Could stop the waters from drying up
They tried to get around it
But eventually, the time was up
D
Em
The fish died,
D
Em
C
Em
and their bodies all were washed ashore
The sea dried,
D
Em
C
like it does so many times before
everybody saw it coming
With this demise,
C
Em
everybody started running
Yes, their values quickly plummeted
C
Em
Left behind these little
Em
D
That still sit here
D
Em
An Atlanta Thomas left behind
Plans to debut, we're abandoned
D
Em
another testament to fragile lives
Man on the hill,
D
Em
in a band of timers left behind
Plans to debut, we're abandoned
Em
D
Land has been killed,
another testament to fragile
Em
D
Em
D
lives
Em
D
Em
D
Em
But he's still there
D
Em
D
Em
Yeah, he's still there
D
Em
D
C
Em
C
D
D
Em
far off from anyone
D
Em
A shadow of the past,
And still this man remains,
D
Em
D
Trying to find some beauty
Em
D
in the ruins that there's left to see
Like a haunting melody,
D
Em
Still he's trying to bring it back,
D
Em
from older times and tired sights
Still he may never leave,
D
Em
laying down his tired bones
