Key: G
Introduction:
G C G
I see you now and then in dreams
G C G
Your voice sounds just like it used to
G D Em
I know you better than I knew you then
C D G
All I can say is I love you
G C G
I thought our days were commonplace
G C G
Thought they would number in millions
G D Em
Now there's only the aftertaste
C D G
Of circumstance that can't pass this way again
(Chorus)
G C G
Treasure of the broken land
G D G
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
G C G
Waiting wind of Gabriel
G Em D G
Blow soon upon the hollow bones
G C G
I saw the city at its tortured worst
G C G
And you were outside the walls there
G D Em
You were relieved of a lifelong thirst
C D G
I was dry at the fountain
G C G
I knew that you could see my shame
G C G
But you were eyeless and sparing
G D Em
I awoke when you called my name
C D G
I felt the curtain tearing
G D Em
I awoke when you called my name
C D G
I felt the curtain tearing
(Chorus)
G C G
Treasure of the broken land
G D G
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
G C G
Waiting wind of Gabriel
G Em D G
Blow soon upon the hollow bones
C Bm C D
All the way to Macon
C Bm C D
All the way to Macon
G C G
I can melt the clock hands down
G C G
But only in my memory
G D Em
Nobody gets the second chance
C D G
To be the friend they meant to be
G C G
I see you now and then in dreams
G C G
Your voice sounds just like it used to
G D Em
I believe I will hear it again
C D G
God how I love you
