Death of a City Barclay James Harvest
VERSE 1
********
I [D]look down the street but there's [C]no one there
In the [G]cold, in the dark, in the [D]night air
I [D]call out for life but my [C]heart feels despair
There's no [G]sign of a light in the [D]cold dismal night
-------------------------
VERSE 2
********
The [D]lights have all gone, the [C]clothes are all torn
The [G]people are gone but the [D]victory's won
I [D]call out for life but it's [C]after the day
Now the [G]people are gone just the [D]city alone
D C D X2
-------------------------
CHORUS
*******
[D]Eyes look from the second [C]floor
Down to the street [G]below
Calm now the wind is [D]slow[C]
[D]See posters once on the [C]wall
[C]Now washed away in the [G]rain
Peeling from [D]buildings tall
[G]
-------------------------
VERSE 3
********
I'll [D]follow you friends to where [C]life never ends
Make our [G]mistakes again as our [D]life lines descend
[D]Time is like dust and the [C]dust is like snow
As it [G]covers the ruins of the [D]life that you know
-------------------------
CHORUS
*******
[D]Trees once green now turned to [C]stone
Objects that look like [G]ghosts
All of them over[D]grown[C]
[D]Mist all sight and mind is [C]blurred
Lie on your back and [G]cry
Words uttered never [D]heard
[G]
VERSE 4
********
I [D]look down the street but there's [C]no one there
In the [G]cold, in the dark, in the [D]night air
I [D]call out for life but my [C]heart feels despair
There's no [G]sign of a light in the [D]cold dismal night
-------------------------
VERSE 5
********
The [D]lights have all gone, the [C]clothes are all torn
The [G]people are gone but the [D]victory's won
I [D]call out for life but it's [C]after the day
Now the [G]people are gone just the [D]city alone
[D]
