Flat top pave-ment com-fort me
B A G F#
Like a chemical reaction or a steamroller, spreading randomly
B A G F#
There=D5s a distant fuzz of a frequency
B A G F#
It tickles my ears, rustles under my feet
B A G F#
And it shakes the leaves off of every tree
G A F#
Vio-lent-ly
B A G
What protection everlasting peace
A B
Everything must cease
B A G F#
In-sti-tu-tion on the hill
B A G F#
Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to remind the people's will
B A G F#
There's a shadow stain on the west facade
B A G F#
It is spread like a cave to entrap the pod
B A G F#
And the decent folks find it oh so odd
G A F#
Oh so odd
B A G
What protection everlasting peace
A B
Everything must cease

B A G F#
Brave me-mo-rials hewn white stone
B A G F#
Like the comforting caress of a mother or a friend you've always known

It evokes such pain and significance
B A G F#
What was once is reduced to remembrance
B A G F#
And the generations pass without recompense
G A F#
Aa-aaaa-hhh...
B A G
What protection everlasting peace
A B
Everything must cease
