G  Bm   C/G   D7  Em  A  C/G


      G
I can feel the mystery 
            Bm
But I can't play it 
                         C/G
Grey as the children are grey 
                       D7
My thoughts are grim, polluted as I am
Em              A             C/G
Walking out one summer noon

    G               Bm
So soon How will the weather bring
                            C/G
Sing like the children have sung
                     D7
High as the stars are hung
   Em        A    C/G
I vanish before I go

       G               Bm
I have written with a rope
                  C/G
Wrapped around my throat
                      D7 
Loomed like an island Dope hooked and cycloned
Em               A            C/G
Honey-combed my heart in love

         G
And from above
      Bm
Every cemetery
            C/G
Against the bloom
                  D7
Rattle the pigs, visit the silence
Em                A       C/G
Waking up an open wound

Interlude

      G
I can feel the mystery 
            Bm
But I can't play it 
                         C/G
Grey as the children are grey 
                       D7
My thoughts are grim, polluted as I am
Em              A             C/G
Walking out one summer noon
