Am G
The soldiers standing on the shore take up their golden shields
Am G
You watch them from your room high on the city walls
Am G
In the distance on the shifting sea, a thousand coloured sails
Am
Is this the moment you made? Is this the way that you planned?
G
You know it won't be long now
Dm E Bb
The finest treasures of kings, all of those precious things - they never tempted you
Dm E Bb C G
So as you stood in the ruins, how could you dare to look on as they burned for you?
Dm E Bb
The broken pieces of clay and the palest eyes painted in Trojan blue
Am G
You remember how it used to be when you were just a girl
Am G
Nothing really mattered then, you can remember so well
Am G
How you used to hold your head so high, those days will never return
Dm E Bb
The finest treasures of kings, all of those precious things - they never tempted you
Dm E Bb C G
So as you stood in the ruins, how could you ever have known as they burned for you?
Dm E Bb
The broken pieces of clay and the palest eyes painted in Trojan blue
Am G
Dust is drifting in the evening air across the field below
Am G
The silver mirror you hold will never tell you turn your face away
Dm E Bb
The finest treasures of kings, all of those precious things - they never tempted you
Dm E Bb C G
So as you stood in the ruins, how could you ever have known as they burned for you?

The broken pieces of clay and the palest eyes painted in Trojan blue
