 <br/>
 Tune:  Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb <br/>
 <br/>
 A   G               D <br/>
 Devastation at last finally we meet <br/>
 A     G                      D <br/>
 After all of these years out here in the street <br/>
 A     G                   D <br/>
 I had a feeling you would make yourself known <br/>
 A        G                   D <br/>
 You came along just to claim your place on the throne <br/>
                 Bm          F#m <br/>
 Now I have been overthrown, overthrown <br/>
 <br/>
 A             G                   D <br/>
 And I thought If I told the right lines <br/>
                  A     G            D <br/>
 But these mockingbirds won't let me shine <br/>
 <br/>
 Devastation my door was left open wide <br/>
 You brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride <br/>
 I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts <br/>
 I made a not to myself, I merely forgot <br/>
 Now I am overwrought, I'm overwrought <br/>
 <br/>
 And I thought If I told the right lines <br/>
 But these mockingbirds won't let me shine <br/>
 And I thought If I told the right lines <br/>
 But these mockingbirds won't let me shine <br/>
 <br/>
 Em                       F#m <br/>
 One day this ground will break   <br/>
 Em              F#m               Bm <br/>
 and open up for me I hope it will I hope it will  <br/>
 <br/>
 [solo see below] <br/>
 <br/>
 Salutations at last, I'm down on my knees <br/>
 I hear the bugle this morn blast Revile <br/>
 Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm <br/>
 All my sails were ablaze, I was chained to helm <br/>
 Now I am overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed <br/>
 <br/>
 And I thought If I told the right lines <br/>
 But these mockingbirds won't let me shine <br/>
 And I thought If I told the right lines <br/>
 But these mockingbirds won't let me shine <br/>
 <br/>

 Solo: (half step flat also) <br/>
