Intro 1
(G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) (G major)
Verse 1
There's an oasis (C major)
in the heat of the day
There's a fire (G major) in the chill of night
And a (C major) turnabout in circumstance
makes each a hell (G major) in its own right
I've been (C major) boxed in, in the lowlands,
in the canyons that think
Been (G major) pushed to the brink of the precipice
and dared not to blink
I've been (C major) confounded in the whirlwind
of what- ifs and dreams
I've been (G major) burned by the turning of
the wind back upon my own flames

Verse 2
Knock the scales (G major) from (C major) my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
It's on the tip of my tongue
Verse 3
Oh, (G major) (C major) (G major)
I've seen (C major) through
the walls of this
kingdom of dust,
felt the (G major) crucial revelation
But the (C major) broad streets of the heart and
the day- today meet at a (G major) blind intersection
I don't (C major) want to be lonely,
I don't want to feel pain
I don't (G major) want to draw straws
with the sons of Cain
You can take it (C major) as a prayer if
you'll remember my name
You can (G major) take it as the penance
of a profane saint (D minor)
Verse 4
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
It's on the tip of my tongue
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
Interlude 1
On the tip of my tongue
(C major) (G major)
(C major) (G major)
Verse 5
There's an oas (C major) is in the
heat of the day
There's (G major) fire in the chill of night
When I know (C major) them both I'll know your
love, I will feel (G major) it in the twilight
Oh, as cir (C major) cumstance comes crashing
(G major) through my (C major) walls like a
train, or like a (G major) chorus from
the mountains of the ocean floor
Like the (C major) wind burst of bird
wings taking flight in a
hard rain, or like a (G major) mad dog on the
far side of Dante's door
Verse 6
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
It's on the tip of my tongue
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
It's on the tip of my tongue
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I (G major) want to cry out
It's on the tip of my tongue
Knock the scales (C major) from my eyes
Knock the words from my lungs
I want to (G major) cry out
