[Verse]
Gm
The lamps now glitter down the street;
Ebmaj7
Faintly sound the falling feet;
F
And the blue even slowly falls
Gm
About the garden trees and walls.

Gm
Now in the falling of the gloom
Ebmaj7
The red fire paints the empty room:
F
And warmly on the roof it looks,
Gm
And flickers on the backs of books.

[Chorus]
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb F
That crumbles in your furnaces!

[Verse]
Gm
Armies march by tower and spire
Ebmaj7
Of cities blazing, in the fire;—
F
Till as I gaze with staring eyes,
Gm
The armies fade, the lustre dies.

Gm
Then once again the glow returns;
Ebmaj7
Again the phantom city burns;
F
And down the red-hot valley, lo!
Gm
The phantom armies marching go!

[Chorus]
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb F
That crumbles in your furnaces!

Gm
Blinking embers, tell me true
Ebmaj7
Where are those armies marching to,
F
And what the burning city is
Gm
That crumbles in your furnaces!

[Chorus]

And what the burning city is
Bb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb F
That crumbles in your furnaces!

Eb Eb Bb Bb

Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb F
That crumbles in your furnaces!
