The cave Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Last night I had the strangest
dream that [G]I have ever d[C]reamed
I was a boy again, just barely in my [Am]teens
Wan[C]dering through the woods and
hills that [F]tower above our [C]town
And [F]in the rocks and [C]brush the
entrance [G]to a cave [Am]I found
And like most any young boy
would I [G]crawl into the [C]cave
And through the damp, dark darkness,
then I slowly made my [Am]way
[C]Tunnel after tunnel,
going [F]this old way and [C]that
Until [F]suddenly I [C]knew,
I didn't [G]know where I was [Am]at
I tried to find the way out,
but it [G]seemed to be in [C]vain
The more I tried,
the more confused and frightened I be[Am]came
At [C]last, in sheer exhaustion,
I [F]collapsed and fell [C]asleep
Until [F]the distant [C]roar and sound
of [G]thunder awakened [Am]me
The thunder boomed, the earth edge shook,
I [G]trembled in my [C]fear
Surely this must be the worst storm
in a thousand [Am]years
And [C]all the time the fury of the
[F]storm just seemed to [C]grow
Until [F]suddenly it [C]ended with
a [G]great earthquaking [Am]blow
I then began to crawl around
and [G]what a stroke of [C]luck
I saw above a tiny light and
so I followed [Am]up
And [C]soon I crawled from out of what
I [F]thought would be my [C]grave
And [F]what I saw, [C]it made me wish
I [G]was back down in the [Am]cave
For there was not a blade of grass,
a [G]tree, or bush [C]around
Not even one small bug crawling
on the park's burnt [Am]ground
And [C]looking down the hill I saw
the [F]shambles of a [C]town
Where people [F]used to live [C]before

[Outro 1]
the bomb came down.
[Am]
