One [C]day the knife be[C/B]gan to fall
And [Am]as it dropped, I [Gsus4]heard it call
Oh [F]father, see how [C]I have grown,
The [F]bastard fruit of [G]seed you've sown.
[C]Lost my er[C/B]ection
[Am]Saw my ref[Gsus4]lection
It was [F]hard to [C]see that face,
He [Dm]said "Welcome home, brother,
How have you[G] been?"
We're at the [C]end of an [C/B]era,
No more [Am]sharpening our [Gsus4]arrows,
No more [F]praying we [C]never hit
The [F]things that we are [G]shooting at
We've [C]gone through the [C/B]valley
We've [Am]borne our burden [Gsus4]badly,
But [F]lift up your ears and [C]turn around,
I [F]think I can [C]hear a sound.
The [Dm]tune is sweet, the rhythm strong,
A [G]music that could bring us all [Am]together ag[G]ain.
One [C]night I left my [C/B]lady's side,
I [Am]felt some change wit[Gsus4]hin the tide,
[F]Pulled a blanket [C]over me,
[F]Sent my little [G]boat to sea.
[C]I could feel the [C/B]waves come,
[Am]And find the [Gsus4]rhythm,
The [F]ocean won't let [C]you forget,
[Dm]Tide rolls out,
But the tide will come back [G]in.
We're at the [C]end of an [C/B]era,
No more [Am]sharpening our [Gsus4]arrows,
No more [F]praying we [C]never hit
The [F]things that we are [G]shooting at.
We've [C]left our lovers w[C/B]aiting,
[Am]Spent our juices[Gsus4] masturbating,
[F]Now I think it's [C]time we start
To [F]build something that [C]has a heart.
The [Dm]air is growing thick with tones
That [G]just might bring these [Am]scattered bones together ag[G]ain.
One [C]morning, we woke [C/B]up to find
The [Am]chasm had be[Gsus4]come so wide
Bet[F]ween us and our [C]fathers,
And [F]while we slept the [G]space grew larger.
[C]I could feel the s[C/B]hadow,
[Am]I could hear the e[Gsus4]cho
Of a [F]song I know he [C]used to sing,
[Dm]Start to remember
how it be[G]gins.
We're at the [C]end of an [C/B]era,
No more [Am]sharpening our [Gsus4]arrows,
No more [F]praying we [C]never hit
The [F]things that we are [G]shooting at.
We've [C]sent our vessels [C/B]out to sea,
[Am]Tied our feathers [Gsus4]to the tree,
[F]Spent the winter [C]on our knees,
[F]Looking for these [C]melodies.
The [Dm]songs of a forgotten king
Who [G]longs to hear his [Am]people sing together ag[G]ain.
