        D/E  C/E  Em  

Em  
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land 
D/E 
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky 
C/E 
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers 
Em  
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking 


He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise 
D/E 
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise 
C/E 
He's chained forever to a world that's departed 
Em  
It's not enough, it's not enough 

Solo Em  D/E  C/E  Em 

Em 
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright 
D/E 
His knees have trembled and given way in the night 
C/E 
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth 
Em 
His step has faltered 

Bm       A G    F#m     
One world, one soul 
Bm       A     G     F#m             
Time pass, the river rolls 

( G  A  G  A  Bm ) 

Em 
He talks to the river of lost love and dedication 
D/E 
Silently replies that swirl invitation 
C/E 
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea 
Em 
A grim intimation of what is to be 

There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night 
D/E 
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight 
C/E 
And the silence speaks so much louder that words 
Em 
Of promises broken 

Final: Em  D/E  C/E  Em  
        D/E  C/E  Em  
        D/E  C/E  Em  
        D/E  C/E  Em
