C5 Dm Eb Dm
[Verse]
C5 Dm Eb Dm
I built my house of reeds upon a marsh in Elise
C5 Dm Eb Dm
My father was released a day's walk from San Denis
C5 Dm Eb Dm
We buried him beneath the bone-white sands of San Denis
[Instrumental]
C5 Dm Eb Dm (x2)
[Chorus]
F Eb Gm F
Silence of an airborne night push high above the roof
F Eb Gm F
Daughters of the red lights blind, the icy works of art
F Eb Gm F
The city lights and restless nights go once upon the Lord
F Eb Gm F
You and I will lie beside the fire sparked from boards
