A5 E5
Spring it came upon us, every insect filled the air
D5 A5 Fill
Dropped their wings upon my brother, cast their shadows on his hair
A5 E5
If we follow where they're leading, We will surely come before
D5 A5 A5
some unseen and wondrous magic, made of visions to explore
D5 A5 A5
Near the town where we were living, was an old abandoned farm
D5 A5 A5
Every year we'd plant an orchid, in the shelter of it's arm
D5 A5 A5
To protect us from the madness, of the future still to come
E5 C5 D5
It will be like this forever, I will keep you safe from harm

A5 E5
Then they caught us in the summer, dressed in fathers finest clothes
D5 A5 Fill
You the hat he wore to market, I the jacket filled with holes
A5 E5
I've been searching all these hours, for a hand as pale as bone
D5 A5 A5
That would keep the strongest sunlight, and reflect the brightest stone
D5 A5 A5
Near the town where we were living, was a warm and fragrant smell
D5 A5 A5
Of the orchid we had planted, now a forest tall and well
D5 A5 A5
What a statue to our greatness, what a story all will tell
E5 C5 D5
They'll remember us forever, they'll remember where we fell
Bridge
A5 E5 D5 A5 Fill
A5
This old dark machine, it shakes and it shudders
G5
Pulls to the left, then dies near the gutter
D5
But still in the road, the traffic is silent
A5
The people they stare, and then they turn violent
C5
If they should touch, the hem of your dress
A5
I would rise like a lion, strike out again
C5
The faithful they wait, the faithful they wait
G5
By the sign
D5 A5 A5
Near the town where we were living, came a loud and joyous sound
D5 A5 A5
As the earth and all her beauty, picked us up from off the ground
D5 A5 A5
Carried far across the mountain, to a kingdom never bound
E5 C5 D5
We will live like this forever, I will love you, I will love you
