[Verse 1]
Baug Em Baug Em
The lights of the ashes smoulder through hills and vales,
Baug Em Baug Em
Nostalgia burns in the hearts of the strongest,
Baug Em Baug
Picasso is painting the ships in the harbour,
Em Baug Em
The wind------ and------- sails,
Baug Em Baug Em
These are years... with a genius------ for living!
[Chorus]
Dm7 Em7
The rope is cut,
Bm Cmaj7 D Em7
The rabbit is loose-------, the blood of a poet,
(Fire at will in this open sea - son!)
Bm Cmaj7 G6 Fmaj7#11
The ink in the well------!
(It's all written down in this age of rea - son!)

The animals run through harvested fields of fire,

The sudden------ rain--------,
Baug Em Baug Em
These are years... with a genius------ for living!
