Song information
Artist: Graham Parker Album: 12 Haunted Episodes
Lyrics
Intro am c (twice)
(C) am c As you look into an invisible landscape
Dm7 c And the waves of time part behind your back
G As your life crumbles and turns into fiction
Dm7 c And the end of it becomes a fact
Am c The ghosts of children will run in your garden
Dm7 c And play with an imaginary ball
G You will be released and pardoned
Dm7 c Now there's nowhere left to fall
Dm7 c dm7 c Chorus good bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
Dm7 (add g) c dm7 c Now fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly
Am c A steam rises out of the water
Dm7 c And a mist hangs over the field
G The tears of your wife and daughter
Dm7 c Have all but released their yield
Am c The ghosts of lovers will walk toward you
Dm7 c And beckon you into their arms
G And the mighty bells of chaos
Dm7 c Will no longer sound their alarms
Chorus repeat (plus way way way way way)
Dm7 g Shake off your carcass leave us in the dark
C c That's us fumbling 'round like ants on the ground
Dm7 g In palaces and hovels reading mystery novels
C c But we never get the plot maybe you got it now
Dm7 g Shake that mortal coil leave us to toil
C c Take off that weight take off that weight
Dm7 g Listen to the silence know the end of violence
C c Is a clean slate is a clean slate
Chorus repeat
