VERSE 1
********
D C
I look down the street but there's no one there
G D
In the cold, in the dark, in the night air
D C
I call out for life but my heart feels despair
G D
There's no sign of a light in the cold dismal night
-------------------------

VERSE 2
********
D C
The lights have all gone, the clothes are all torn
G D
The people are gone but the victory's won
D C
I call out for life but it's after the day
G D
Now the people are gone just the city alone
D C D X2
-------------------------

CHORUS
*******
D C
Eyes look from the second floor
G
Down to the street below
D C
Calm now the wind is slow
D C
See posters once on the wall
C G
Now washed away in the rain
D
Peeling from buildings tall
G
-------------------------

VERSE 3
********
D C
I'll follow you friends to where life never ends
G D
Make our mistakes again as our life lines descend
D C
Time is like dust and the dust is like snow
G D
As it covers the ruins of the life that you know
-------------------------

CHORUS
*******
D C
Trees once green now turned to stone
G
Objects that look like ghosts
D C
All of them overgrown
D C
Mist all sight and mind is blurred
G
Lie on your back and cry
D
Words uttered never heard
G
