[Am]
[G][F][Am][Em][G]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Thought formed [Am]the e[F]arth a[Em]s earth formed the thought -
It [Dm]flew with the wind [C]as the [Bm]wind always [C]sought
[Am]the [Em]fire [Am]of fe[F]at,[Am][F][Am]
[Dm]The [Am]soma o[A]f [G]mo t[F]io[Dm]n,[Am]
[F][Am]
Producing the [G]sweat [F]that set[Am] off
the cor[G]ro [F]sion [Am]that made the[A]
Flesh [G]turn [F]into [Am]earth agai[F]n.[Am]
[G]So

[Verse 2]
[Em]let the water drink you
as [C]Ophelia [Em]did -
Beloved [Am]daughter [Em]and
[C]che[Am]rished sister.
Or wor[G]ship the [F]earth that
Pompeii [G]once [Am]hid,[F]
[Am]Differing not between vagr[G]ant and minister.
[Am]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Take [F]heed to [G]the [Am]wind and its
[F]soft fingertips and [Am]fire's red
[C]Thought[F] s [C]and s[Em]molde[Am]ring
[F]lips.[Am]

[Verse 4]
[Em]So let the water drink you
as Ophelia did -
Beloved [Am]daugh[Em]ter
and cherished [C]sister.[Em]
Or [Am]worship the [Em]earth that
Pompeii once hid,
Differing not [Am]between vag
[G]rant [C]and min[Am] ister.

[Verse 5]
Sense - will you show me the way to
[F]the matter [Am]of radiant living,
Of having to shatter the fundamentals
of in[F]toxicant [G]thinking?
[Am]Opposing the stream , never stir[F]ring or blin[Em]king,
[Am][C][Dm]
But [Am]firmly [A]preserving [G]Sisyph[Am]us' work.

[Verse 6]
The boulder rolls [Dm]heavily [Am]- is
[F]it [Em]in vain?[Dm]
Deducing the [C]truth [Bm]again and again.
[C]The [Bm]wind[Dm] spee[Em]ds up[B]
[Em]as the e[D]arth t[Em]urns hard.
The [Am]mountain swells [G]up [F]but rea[Am]ps
pure disreg[Em]ard from mythol[Dm]ogy,[Em][G]
[D]History [Em]and all in between.
[Am][G][F][Am]

[Verse 7]
[Em][Am][G]
[Em]So let the water drink you
as Ophelia did -
Beloved daughter and cherished sister.
[C]Or [Em]worship the earth that
Pompeii once hid,
Differing not [C]between [Em]vagr[G]ant and[D][Em]
[Am]min [Em]is te[C]r .[Em][Am][G][D]
