Verse 1
I traveled time and space and quicksand
Verse 2
And for sixty days I knew no other road
G
And through the maelstrom,
which turned in time with the kick drum
I was swallowed and twisted
C
G
and spit out on the coast
And in this place there stands a gate
that leads to the heart of the city
And I've spent seven years and a sea of
fears in this broken mirror of a city
C
G
heartbeat missing in the city
Sweet sunlight, well,
I can see it in my mind's eye
C
G
Yeah I remember feeling alright
And I saw black clouds and Turin shrouds
and it smelled of a faded empire
C
G
It's all concrete and steel
We're asleep at the wheel,
and the mayor's just a gun for hire

Verse 3
morning sings
Outside the gate is everything
she has no need for history
C
G
She has the key, she has the key
Sweet sunlight, well,
C

I can see it in my mind's eye
Let in the light, let in the light
Verse 4
the stone and you were the stream
And Chemical City isn't all that you need
But it's all that you're getting
Verse 5
and they've hidden the key

And I'm a visitor here so
I asked her
And she said free yourself from history
C

That is the key, that is the key
Sweet sunlight, well,
I can see it in my mind's eye
