The build up lasted for days
           E5     C#5               F#5  A5 E5
lasted for weeks,       lasted too long
C#5     F#5      A5                   E5
    our hero withdrew, when there was two
C#5                               F#5
he could not choose one, so there was none


A5  A5 ?    B5    F#5
worn into the vaguely announced


A5
the spinning top made a sound like a train across the valley
E5                                       C#5
fading, oh so quiet but constant 'til it passed
       F#5
over the ridge into the distances
            A5           E5
written on your ticket to remind you where to stop
    C#5            A5
and when to get off
