Intro
F#m A 4x
[Verse 1]
F#m B D F#m
Poet, priest, and visionary rallied to the call
A C#m F#m
The will of humankind defied them all
F#m B D F#m
Coveting the gold and silver idols of success
A C#m F#m
Only to perpetuate duress
[Interlude]
F#m A 4x
[Verse 2]
F#m B D F#m
Every king's assassin waiting silently at bay
A C#m F#m
Counting down until his holy day
F#m B D F#m
Artifacts of ancient wisdom buried in the sand
A C#m F#m
Hastily upturned to clear the land
[Chorus]
A C#m
Now I ain't going to claim to be the second son
A
I love my follow man
D
But I hate what he's become
F#m B F#m D F#m
And it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on
[Interlude]
F#m A 4x
[Verse 3]
F#m B D F#m
To calculate the universe leads further from divine
A C#m F#m
But can we comprehend all that we find?
F#m B D F#m
Artifacts of ancient wisdom buried in the sand
A C#m F#m
Neglected and denied by us again
[Chorus]
A C#m
Now I ain't going to cast the first stone, you see
A
I love my follow man
D
And I love what he could be
F#m B F#m D F#m
But it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on
