E               C#m
The streets are cracked
                       E
And there's glass everywhere
                  A
And a baby stares out
                E
With motherless eyes
                C#m
Under long gone beauty
             E
On fields of war
            A
Trapped in lament
              E
To the poet's core
   C#m  E    A            E
Oh where  oh where will I be
   C#m   E            A        E      C#m  E  A  E
Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
E             C#m     E
Met an Indian boy in Ottawa
           A                E
He laid me down on a bed of straw
                      C#m                     E
Said don't waste your breath don't waste your heart
                     A
Don't  blister your heels
               E
Running in the dark
   C#m  E    A            E
Oh where  oh where will I be
   C#m   E            A        E      
Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
C#m          E
Yea like the heat
        A                 E
Of your body laying under me
         F#m                          A 
May your wild lip get you where your going
           F#m                             A           
With your inventions your intentions your laughter
              E
Your forever yearning
   C#m  E    A            E
Oh where  oh where will I be
   C#m   E            A        E      C#m  E  A  E
Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
                C#m
I walked to the river
                    E
And I walked to the rim
                  A                      E
I walked thru the teeth of the reaper's grin
            C#m              E
I walked to you rolled up in wire
              A         E
To the other side of desire
   C#m  E    A            E
Oh where  oh where will I be
   C#m   E            A        E      
Oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
   C#m  C#m/B A    C#m   C#m/B A   F#m A       D     E
Oh where        oh where       oh  when that trumpet sounds
   C#m  C#m/B  F#m         D                   E
Oh where       oh where oh when that trumpet sounds
E                    C#m                       E
Well the heart opens wide like it's never seen love
              A                      E
And addiction stays on tight like a  glove
   C#m  E    A            E
Oh where  oh where will I be
