The Eternal Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Procession moves [Am]on,
the shouting is over
Praise to the glory of loved
ones now gone
Talking aloud as they sit
'round their tables
Scattering flowers washed

[Verse 2]
down by the rain
[Am]
Stood by the gate at the foot
of the garden
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky
Try to cry out in the heat of
the moment

[Interlude 1]
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside
[Am]

[Verse 3]
Cry like [Am]a child,
though these years make me older
With children,
my time is so wastefully spent
Burden to keep,
though their inner communion

[Verse 4]
Accept like a curse, an unlucky deal
[Am]
Played by the gate at the foot
of [D]the garden[Am]
My view stretches out from
the fence to the [D]wall[Am]
No words could explain,
no actions [D]determine[Am]
Just watching the trees and the leaves [D]as [Am]they fall

[Outro 1]
[D]
