Verse 1
F#m11
To be,
E
A bee, a moth.
F#m11 E
Four wings spread for the soft last touch
A
Of glory sun,
E A
Remembering blood plums and lips and lemons –
E
One hundred different suns
D
In a hundred different heavens.
F A
Spied from a rowboat –
Chorus
D#m G G#m
Stroke, nought is spoken,
A D#m G E
Before you know it, the spell is broken,
D E
You might wonder where you are,
A D#m G F#m11
Floating on the reservoir.
Verse 2
E
Oh I have counted the notes
F#m11
We landed here not many years ago
E A
And it was not a pretty song that we composed:
E
La, la, la, the early bird he knows,
A
You hang from the cherry bough
D F
When you're lichen yourself, and leave –
Chorus
A D#m G F#m
The cold cold scent of stone and mulch,
A D#m G E
Great stone wall to stave the rush,
D E
To think that peace might be too much,
A D#m C B
Waiting for that giant

Verse 3
F#m11 E
The lake... the fir-fringed lake –
F#m11
Placid and ample, birded, breezed and dappled
E
Through the mountain break,
A
Through the mountain break,
E A D F
A moment take, a moment, a moment...
Bridge
A
You might wonder where you are,
D#m
Perched up on the reservoir,
G
Adolf in the white hotel,
A
All this time we've been in hell,
A D#m G F#m
You might wonder where you are,
A D#m G F#m
Perched above the reservoir,
D E
Luis of the lake retire,
Outro
A D#m D A
Before they set the lake on fire
A E D A
Before they set the lake on fire
A E C B F#m11
Before they set the lake on fire
F#m E (repeat to fade)
