Intro
B5 C#m D C#m
[Verse]
B5 C#m D C#m
I built my house of reeds upon a marsh in Elise
B5 C#m D C#m
My father was released a day's walk from San Denis
B5 C#m D C#m
We buried him beneath the bone-white sands of San Denis
[Instrumental]
B5 C#m D C#m (x2)
[Chorus]
E D F#m E
Silence of an airborne night push high above the roof
E D F#m E
Daughters of the red lights blind, the icy works of art
E D F#m E
The city lights and restless nights go once upon the Lord
E D F#m E
You and I will lie beside the fire sparked from boards
[Outro]
E D F#m E (x4)
