In the Wilderness       Genesis        From Genesis to Revelations 1967

This is a clever little song written by early Genesis, probably Banks and Philips.
If you follow the album track with a metronome, you'll notice the tempo change.
Good song for piano and/or guitar.

Fighting enemies with weapons made to kill
Death is easy as a substitute for pride
Victors join together, happy in their bed
Leaving cold outside the children of the dead

(chorus)
Music, all I hear is music - guaranteed to please
And I look for something else
Rain drops pouring down the rooftops
Flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives
As their lives are run by time  D   C  
           
Same as intro, but then like coming out of verse into the chorus

repeat chorus 2x's

after 2nd chorus  D  C  F  C  D...end

The album ends with a fade on the third chorus. This ending should work well.
