Verse 1
Like carillon bells, (A minor)
the house of (E minor) Au gustus rings (C major)
With the echoing hymn of my fellow (G major) passerine,
they (A minor) took to it
Like a fox to a burrow,
like an eagle (E minor) to an aerie (C major)
And my god, it's getting hard to even
hum a single (G major) thing, 'cause
(C major) You were the song that I'd always sing (G major)
You (B minor) were the (E minor) light that
the fire would (G major) bring
But I (C major) can't shake this feeling
that I was (B minor) only
Pushing the spear (E minor) into your
side (G major) again (E minor) (G major)
(A minor)
See, my birds of a kind,
the more and more are looking like (C major)
Centurions than any little mes (G major)
si (E minor) ah (Asus4) (messiah)
As I (A minor) prune my feathers like
leaves from a (E minor) vine (C major)
I find that we have fewer
and (A minor) fewer (G major) in kind, but (A minor)
My palms and fingers still
reek of (E minor) gasol (G major) ine
(C major) From throwing fuel to the fire of
that Greco-Roman (G major) dream
dream (A minor)
Purifying the holy rock to
melt the (E minor) gilded seams
(C major) It don't bring me relief, no,
it don't bring me (G major) nothing that
(C major) You were the song that I'd always sing (B minor)
(E minor) You were the light that
the fire (G major) would bring
But I (C major) can't shake this
feeling that I was (B minor) only
Push (E minor) ing the spear into your side again (G major) and again (E minor) and again (A minor)
(Asus4) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (E minor)
(G major) (E minor) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(A minor)
(G major) When he (A minor) comes a (E minor) knocking at my door (C major) (G major)
(C major) What am I to do, (E minor) what am I to do,
(G major) oh, Lord?
When the (Asus4) cold wind (E minor) rolls
in from the north (G major)
What am (E minor) I to do, what am I to do,
oh, (A minor) Lord? (Oh, Lord)
When he comes a knocking (E minor) at my door (C major)
What am I to do, what am I to do,
oh, (E minor) (A minor) Lord? (Oh, Lord)
When the cold wind rolls
in (E minor) from the north (C major)
What am I to do, what am I to do,
(G major) oh, Lord? (Oh, Lord) (E minor) (A minor)
When he comes a knocking (E minor) at my
door (C major) (at my door)
What am I to do, what am I to do,
(G major) oh, Lord? (Oh, Lord)
(A minor) When the cold wind rolls in (E minor) from
the north (from the (C major) north)
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh, Lord?
