[Ab]
[Abm]
Under the ruins of a walled city Crumbling towers and beams of yellow light
[Ab]
No flags of truce, [Abm] no cries of pity Siege guns are being pounded through the
[Db] night It took a day [E] to build a city
We walked through the streets in the afternoon As I returned [Gm] across the fields I'd known
[F]
I'd seen the walls that I'd once made Had to stop in my tracks for fear
But walking on [C] the lines I [Fm] learned If I felt [Ab] this hope rest [Eb] around me awhile
A single view [Ab] in first [Bbm] time by [Eb] awhile
And [Fm] as it filled [Ab] our wishes [Bbm] For a [Eb] cannot build a chasm
Let [Ebm] me soothe the [Gb] battle of Sauron
[Abm]
[Gb]
[Ab] And I went off [Abm] to fight [Db] some battle [Ab] That I'd [Bbm] invented inside my head
Who I so loved [E] for years and years Had probably fought or even wished that I was dead
[Dm] While the [F] armies all are sleeping Beneath the tattered [Gm] flag we'd made
[F] I had to stop my tracks for fear But [C] walking on the lines I [Fm] learned
If I felt [Ab] this hope rest [Eb] around me awhile A [Fm] single view [Ab] in first time by [Eb]

[Fm] And as it filled [Ab] our wishes [Eb] For a cannot build a chasm
Let [Ebm] me soothe the battle [Gb] of Sauron

[Gb] Prisoners now become [Abm] your home [Ab] A sentence you [Ebm] seem prepared to pay
It took a day [E] to build a city We walked through the streets in the afternoon
I [F] returned [C] across the lands I'd known I recognized the [Gm] fields where I'd once played
Had to stop in my tracks for fear [C] But walking on the lines I [Fm] learned
If I felt [Ab] this hope [Bbm] rest [Eb] around me awhile A single view [Ab] in first time by [Eb] awhile
[Ab] And as it filled our wishes [Bbm]
