| Capo 2 C F x 4 Am F C I know that time has numbered my days Am F C and I'll go along with everything you say C F x 4 Am F C But I ride home laughing look at me now Am F C and the walls of town they come crumbling down C F x 4 Am F C And my ears here the call of my unborn sons Am F C and I know the choices cover all I've done C F x 4 Am F C But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son Am F C I never lived a year better spent and loved C F x 4 Am F Because I know my weakness C Am Know my voice F C G And I'll believe in grace and choice Am F C Am And I know perhaps my heart is vast F C G But I'll be born without a mask woo C F x 4 Am F C Like the city that nursed my greed and my pride Am F C I stretch my arms into the sky C F x 4 Am F C I cry Babel, Babel look at me now Am F C But the walls of my town they come crumbling down C F x 4 Am F C You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl Am F C As all we see will slip into the cloud C F x 4 Am F C So come down from your mountain and stand where we've been Am F C You know are breath is weak and our body thin C F x 4 Am F C G Press my nose up to the glass around your heart Am F C G I should've known I was weaker from the start Am F C G Am You'll build your walls and I'll play my bloody part G C To tear, to tear them down Am F C Well I'm going to tear, tear them down Am F Because I know my weakness C Am Know my voice F C G And I'll believe in grace and choice Am F C Am And I know perhaps my heart is vast F C G But I'll be born without a mask |
