[D][C][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[D]Sometimes I
wonder how I got mixed up with [C]you
You [D]just cannot comprehend
the things that I [C]do
[D]The truth is so fragile, the ties are so [C]true
Ly[D]ing in the nettles where
the blossoms once [C]grew
[F]So now you're asking
[G]what is this mystery
[F]And all these questions,
[B]anc[A]ien[G]t his to[F#m]ry
Some[D]times I wonder what is left to be [C]said
If I'm [D]consumed and fading will
the children be fed[C]?
[D]The roof is always creaking,
the stone has been [C]bled
[D]You say I'm just existing and
you leave me for [C]dead
[D]Sometimes I can see
your love is [C]a sled
[D]Sliding down the slopes that
will lead to your [C]bed
[D]Some of us are white, some of us are [C]red
[D]Some have got these visions
going 'round in our [C]heads
[F]As you go [G]just blow a kiss to me
[F]And as it [B]falls, [A]anc[G]ient histor[F#m]y
[D]Sometimes a joke can
get out of [C]hand
[D]Laughing like a conqueror in a new [C]land
Con[D]vinced down to his buttons
this was how it was planned
Turns his back on ruins,
that was nothing [C]but sand
[F]Crossing your Alps [G]the ice
and cold blister me
[F]And all the [B]rest,[A][G][F#m][D]
