Chords
Am
O God of earth and altar
G Am
Bow down and hear our cry
Our earthly rulers falter
G Am
Our people drift and die
The walls of gold entombe us
The swords of scorn divide
Take not thy thunder from us
G Am
But take away our pride
Am C
Just a babe in a black abyss
C G
No reason for a place like this
Am C G
The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain
Am
An easy way for the blind to go
C
A clever path for the fools who know
Am F C G
The secret of the hanged man - the smile on his lips
Am
The light of the blind youll see
G Am
The venom that tears my spine
G Am
The eyes of the nile are opening - youll see
Am
She came to me with a serpents kiss
C G
As the eye of the sun rose on her lips
Am C
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry
Am
So we lay in a black embrace
And the seed is sown in a holy place
C G
And I watched and I waited for the dawn
The light of the blind youll see
The venom that tears my spine
The eyes of the nile are opening - youll see
Am
Bind all of us together
G Am
Ablaze of hope and free
No storm or heavy weather
G Am
Will rock the boat youll see
C
The time has come to close your eyes
G Am
And still the wind and rain
For the one who will be king
G Am
The watcher in the ring
G Am
It is you
