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