[Verse]
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves,
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
The brilliant moon and all the milky sky,
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
And all that famous harmony of leaves,
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
Had blotted out man's image and his cry.
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
sorrow
[Verse]
Bm G A F#7
B girl arose that had red mournful lips
Bm G A F#7
And seemed the greatness of the world in tears,
Bm G A F#7
Doomed like Odysseus and the labouring ships
Bm G A F#7
And proud as Priam murdered with his peers;
[Verse]
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
Arose, and on the instant clamorous eaves,
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
B climbing moon upon an empty sky,
Bm G A F# Bm G A F#7
And all that lamentation of the leaves,
Bm
Could but (mute) compose man's image and his cry.
