[Am][D]
[Am]Gently

[Verse 1]
caressing a paper bag
He smiles to himself
as he [D]recollect[F]s time gone by
Ghosts be[C]fore his eyes
[D]Remem[Am] bering faces
he's [D]loved and lost
[Am]Even the faces,
he [D]could not trust [Am]his last [F]game
Preach them [C]all the same
[D]Oh,[Am] retr[G]ospective
accru[D]al brain
Sometimes [G]I fear I'm still i[D]n the cave
But [G]lonely thoughts in an [D]empty
room with [Am]si lence
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead[D]
[Am][D][Am][D][Am]
[D]Now [Am]experience being so re l[D]ative
[Am]He senses his path lies ne[D]arer
[Am]for the [F]heart of his be ing -being[C]s
[D]For [Am]the love maliciously grows in souls,
the seeds that may never be
[D]fertilized [Am]in hi[F]s life
Maybe knowledge will [C]suffice
[D]Ah, ret[G]rospect is a cru[D]el break
Sometimes [G]I fear I'm still v[D]indicated
By [G]lonely thoughts in an [D]empty room
The si[Am]lence
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead
It's enough to wake the dead
It's enough to wake the [D]dead[C][Am][D][Am][D]
[Am][D][D][D][D]
After es[Am]caping the[C] spi[D]der's web,
[Am]he thought freedom
would be an easy task
but how [F]wrong, his prison [C]is now this song
[D]So he loo[Am]ks for the key in
the pa[D]per bag,
[Am]as he smiles to himself
he [D]feels the [Am]lack of what's [F]gone
There's now only [C]what's beyond
[D]Oh, [G]retrospect is a cru[D]el way
Sometimes [G]I fear I'm still i[D]n the kit
[F]But [G]lonely thoughts in an [D]empty room
De[Am]cided it's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead
It's enough to [D]wake the [Am]dead[D][Am][D][Am][D][Am]
