Dm Gm Am
In the tower above the earth,
Dm Gm Am
There is a view that reaches far
Dm Gm Am
Where we see the universe,
Dm Gm Am
I see the fire, I see the end.
Dm Gm Am
Seven miles above the earth,
Dm Gm Am
There is Emmanuel of mothers.
Dm Gm Am C
With his sword, with his robe,
Dm Gm Am C
He comes dividing man from brothers.
Dm Gm Am C Dm
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
Gm Am C Dm
In the powers of the earth, we wait until it rips and rips.
Dm Gm Am C Dm
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
Gm Am C Gm
Oh my mother, she betrayed us, but my father loved and bathed us.
F C Bb
Still I go to the deepest grave,
F C Bb
Where I go to sleep alone
