Joshua smiled, said “listen to reason,
G D Em C
don’t blame me when the walls come tumbling
G C G C G C G
down.”
So I was adrift on the sea of longing
awaiting the trumpets to raise your ivory
gown.
Em C C D G
And if on ly time will tell
C
Then I can’t stand waiting
C Em
While the lights are changing on me
C C D G
Tell it to my own free will
Bm Em
If I lost this thorn from my side
D (bass descends C, B, A)
I think I’d die.
Repeat Intro
Albert Camus said, “living is anguish,”
but don’t dare let those bastards carry you
down.
And if this is so then I see no reason
for spending the evening doing anything but going down
town.
And if only time will tell
then I can’t stand waiting
while the lights are changing on me.
Tell it to my own free will
If I lost this thorn from my side
I’d probably die.
Most likely die
I think I’d die.
