Em 
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
D/E
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
C/E
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
Em 
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking

( Em D/E )

He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
D/E
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
C/E
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
Em 
It's not enough, it's not enough

Em
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
D/E
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
C/E
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
Em                   D/E
His step has faltered

( Em  D/E )

Time pass, the river rolls

Em
He talks to the river of lost love and dedication
D/E
Silently replies that swirl invitation
C/E
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
Em                                 D/E
A grim intimation of what is to be

( Em  D/E )

There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
D/E
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
C/E
And the silence speaks so much louder that words
Em                 D/E
Of promises broken
