F              Am
I treaded lightly
            F
through the park
          C
It was as grey
       G     F
As the newly dead

        Am          C
For the ash and the dust
F                    C
Had combined and was lyin' from
    G              Am
The suburbs to the sticks
F                   C
Never met a soul to bring
         D            G
A little swing to the rhythm

     Am              C
Of a day so long and still
    F              D
I'm afraid I never will
       F      C              G        Am
Hold a conversation, without water or window

  Am             C
I awoke from the dream
          F                   D
A hundred years it might have been
       F           C
Oh the clouds were gathering
     G              Am
With clothes on the line

Am                C
Never mind as the breeze
       F               D
Blew a poster down the street
       F    C
Oh the bold typeface read:
          G          Am
'Will you go or must I?'

F      Am
And in Vienna
F
An artist throws
C                 G
His speckled arms into
    F
The air

    Am                     C
And Mr. Freud, reveals the void
       F               C
In our hearts where we thought
        G                  F
We knew the light from the dark
Am                       F
But there's only sex and murder
C                   G
In the back of our skulls

           Am       C
Still that firebird sings
        F             D
Cuts us open with its wings
       F              C
Oh the glory when the lightning brings
    G               Am
The horses down the mountain

Am                       C
Where the ancient people dwell
           F            D
There's no water in the well
       F          C
Oh the notes that swell and spin
           G          Am
They won't fill empty bellies

Am                     C
Still we march in line together
        F                D
For the progress of your betters
       F               C
Oh you better eat your bread, my friend
    G            Am
The multitude is staring

Am                   C
London, Paris, Rome, Berlin
        F                 D
We will fight and we will win
        F           C
Hold me darling I'm ashamed
            G          Am
So will you go or must I?
