RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL

RE4/SOL    DO5/SOL    SIb7+/SOL DO5/SOL
 Under the ruins of a walled    city 
RE4/SOL    DO5/SOL            SIb7+/SOL DO5/SOL
 Crumbling towers in beams of yellow    light
RE4/SOL      DO5/SOL SIb7+/SOL   DO5/SOL
 No flags of truce,  no cries of pity
RE4/SOL    DO5/SOL        SIb7+/SOL    
 The siege guns have been pounding 
    DO5/SOL
all through the night

MIb7       LAb/MIb MIb       LAb/MIb
 It took a day  to build the city  
MIb7                   LAb/MIb        MIb   LAb/MIb
 We walked through the streets in the afternoon

DO#4/FA#  SI5/FA#           LA7+/FA#   SI5/FA#
 As I   returned across the fields I'd known   
DO#4/FA#          SI5/FA#    LA7+/FA# SI5/FA#
 I recognized the walls that I  once  laid
DO#4/FA#  SI5/FA#    LA7+/FA#   SI5/FA#
 I had to stop in my tracks for fear
   SI7     MI     SI7/4     MI
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

    MIm  RE/FA#     SOL  LAm7 RE
And if I built this fortress around your heart
  MIm     RE/FA# SOL       LAm7      RE
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
     MIm    RE/FA#  SOL     LAm7         
Then let me build a bridge, 
      RE
for I cannot fill the chasm

    DOm7   REm7    MIb7+ FA
And let me set the battlements 
   RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL
on fire

RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL

RE4/SOL      DO5/SOL SIb7+/SOL    DO5/SOL
 Then I went off  to fight some battle  
RE4/SOL     DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL   DO5/SOL
 That I'd invented inside  my head

MIb7     LAb/MIb  MIb       LAb/MIb
 Away so long for years and years
MIb7          LAb/MIb         MIb            
 You probably thought or even wished 
           LAb/MIb
that I was dead

DO#4/FA#   SI5/FA# LA7+/FA# SI5/FA#
 While the armies  all are  sleeping 
DO#4/FA#     SI5/FA#  LA7+/FA# SI5/FA#
 Beneath the tattered flag  we made
DO#4/FA#  SI5/FA#    LA7+/FA#   SI5/FA#
 I had to stop in my tracks for fear
   SI7     MI     SI7/4     MI
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

    MIm  RE/FA#     SOL  LAm7 RE
And if I built this fortress around your heart
  MIm     RE/FA# SOL       LAm7      RE
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
     MIm    RE/FA#  SOL     LAm7         
Then let me build a bridge, 
      RE
for I cannot fill the chasm

    DOm7   REm7    MIb7+ FA
And let me set the battlements 
   RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL
on fire

RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL

RE4/SOL           DO5/SOL SIb7+/SOL   DO5/SOL
 This prison has now      become your home  
RE4/SOL      DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL   DO5/SOL
 A  sentence you seem prepared to pay

MIb7       LAb/MIb MIb       LAb/MIb
 It took a day  to build the city  
MIb7                   LAb/MIb        MIb   LAb/MIb
 We walked through the streets in the afternoon

Of walking on the mines I'd laid

    MIm  RE/FA#     SOL  LAm7 DO         RE
And if I built this fortress around your heart
  MIm    RE/FA#    SOL    LAm7       DO  RE
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
     MIm    RE/FA#   SOL          
Then let me build a bridge, 
      LAm7             DO  RE
for I cannot fill the chasm

    DOm7   REm7     MIb   FA
And let me set the battlements 
    RE4/SOL  DO5/SOL  SIb7+/SOL  DO5/SOL
on fire...
