Baug                     Em                    Baug       Em
      The lights of the ashes smoulder through hills and vales,
Baug             Em                          Baug      Em
      Nostalgia burns in the hearts of the strongest,
Baug                Em                      Baug             Em    Baug        Em
      Picasso is painting the ships in the harbour, the wind--- and----- sails,
Baug                  Em               Baug               Em
      These are years... with a genius------  for living!


Dm7             Em7                 Bm                 Cmaj7       D
    The rope is cut, the rabbit is loose,
                                  (Fire at will in this open sea - son!)

               Em7                   Bm                    Cmaj7            G6   F#7/11
The blood of a poet, the ink in the well!
                              (It's all written down in this age-- of rea - son!)

      The animals run through harvested fields of fire,
Baug                   Em                      Baug      Em
      The bitterness shown in the face of the homeless,
