Intro:: D G Gm D C D C
D
The sun is sinking down
D G D
On the lost parade
G D G
And all along the dirty street
G D G
Tattered banners wave
A A7
A hollow victory song
D7 D
Is ringing in our ears
G Gm D C D C
Drowning out the voices that we fear
D Am
And the big rock spins in space
C G D
In it's lonely circle dance
D Am
Like a ghostly ballerina
D A Bm
Trapped within her trance
G/b /a /g (or G D Em)
And we praise the feast of fools
D Em A
And we shun the Bread of Life
D G D
And the stars shine like the tears of God
A D
For the weary world tonight
Am Bm C
D
Clothed in flesh and bone
D G D
Masters of disguise
G D G
With rage beneath the painted smiles
G D G
Fear behind our eyes
A A7
And time's rushing wings
D7 D
Shadow all the days
G Gm D C D C
Descending like relentless birds of prey
D Am
And the big rock spins in space
C G D
In it's lonely circle dance
D Am
Like a ghostly ballerina
D A Bm
Trapped within her trance
G/b /a /g (or G D Em)
And we praise the feast of fools
D Em A
And we shun the Bread of Life
D G D
And the stars shine like the tears of God
A D
For the weary world tonight
Interlude: music for chorus

G/b /a /g (or G D Em)
And we praise the feast of fools

And we shun the Bread of Life

And the stars shine like the tears of God

For the weary world tonight
