Dm            Am        Bb               Am
Once upon the moment of beauty laid long past 

    Bb                     Dm         Am        A        
the itch on the cheek of a mute mouth clasped

     Bb                        Dm             Am                   A
In a twirled looking glass, to go or stay, in course at its own display

Gm              Dm               Bb                     Asus2  Am  A  Asus4
A pot, a pan, a cutlery board, a pepper and black spice tray

Dm              Am        Bb             Am
Time spooled, unspinning, Life scrolls unravel

    Gm           Dm               Bb                    Am
The telling tale wends, bends and breaks these tomes we travel

Bb         Dm       Am    A
Over and again we abide

    Bb                    A                       D5    D#5 (repeat D5 and D#5)
but which side now of the Looking-glass façade am I? 


Dm                  Am            Bb                 Am
Memories haunt like diamonds, Reminiscence swirls as smoke

Bb               Dm        Am                     A
Nettles in the morning, At night steeped straw of oat

Bb                  Dm            Am           A  
Petals of jasmine, anemones, In a water bowl afloat

    Gm                 Dm                 Bb                  Asus2 Am A Asus4
How grace arranged the chance array, Come eventide's shifting glow

Dm                Am              Bb                      Am
Bend and stretch, swing and sway, I am as a snake in your hands

       Gm               Dm                          Bb                         Am
Wading loose as oars of two creaky boats, that play patterns with silt on the sand

Bb                 Dm
Black coruscation, loam liquid beads

        Bb                A              Dm   Bb   Asus4  A
The Orb Weavers spin the length of their wheels…
