Verse 1:
D G A
When the favors of fate become your force
D G A
And the greatest of lakes becomes your door
D G A
Wear a pair of the fairest hairless mare
D G A
But bear in mind that too much makes careless wear
Chorus:
Bb F G
One snares all her cares in spires of ivory
Bb F G
Walls stretch to the sky and very well
Bb F G
Still will finds a way to make it ugly
Bb F G
Sills, pills and a young man making time
Verse 2:
D G A
All the loveliest hours have come to court
D G A
She's a teller of golden, golden worth
D G A
Will her gaze to your mighty, mighty mountain
D G A
Will a way to the hills and fertile plain?
Chorus:
Bb F G
One snares all her cares in spires of ivory
Bb F G
Walls stretch to the sky and very well
Bb F G
Still will finds a way to make it ugly
Bb F G
Sills, pills and a young man making time
Bridge:
C F
Why, oh why do skies come tumbling down?
C F
Try, we try, but there's no wood to be bound
C F
Mild smiles and days may muddle the sound
C F
The wild-eyed, the moon lights up the crowd
C F C F C F C F G
F G F G
Verse 3:
D G A
With the wheels at her feet, she clouds my eyes
D G A
Heavy metal and meats we tenderize
D G A
Bold, the blood on her hands will tell the tale
D G A Bb
Of the lines and a stealthy, wealthy heir
End.
