C5 Dm Eb Dm

[Verse]
  C5                Dm     Eb              Dm
I built my house of reeds upon a marsh in Elise
   C5           Dm       Eb                    Dm
My father was released a day's walk from San Denis
   C5           Dm        Eb                        Dm
We buried him beneath the bone-white sands of San Denis

C5 Dm Eb Dm   (x2)

[Chorus]
F             Eb                  Gm             F
Silence of an airborne night push high above the roof
F                Eb                    Gm           F
Daughters of the red lights blind, the icy works of art
    F               Eb                 Gm            F
The city lights and restless nights go once upon the Lord
F              Eb             Gm                F
You and I will lie beside the fire sparked from boards
