[Verse 1]
Bb                        Gm          Eb
Who am I to say if I’m blind to see?
Bb                            Ab       Eb
Hidden in the water was the memory
Bb                                  Gm         Eb
England’s pleasant dreaming is a lesson in deceiving
         Bb
With no empathy
        Ab       Eb
Just a fallen tree

[Chorus]
   F                      F/D
So are we turning corners
      Eb                   Eb/D
Or counting down the hours
     F                                F/D
And if we’re throwing sticks and stones
   Ab
Is it from ivory towers?
    F               F/D
Is it just a fable
       Eb                   Eb/D
We’re singing to the masses?
    Cm
Or are we burning bridges
     Ab
In temple tudor castles

[Verse 2]
Bb                         Gm          Eb
How am I to feel when the winter comes?
Bb                              Ab         Eb
Skating on the thin ice of the deeds we’ve done
Bb                              Gm              Eb
England’s pleasant dreaming, a Jerusalem worth keeping
      Bb
In parenthesis
           Ab      Eb
If you’re ill at ease

[Chorus]
    F                      F/D
So are we turning corners
      Eb                   Eb/D
Or counting down the hours
     F                                F/D
And if we’re throwing sticks and stones
   Ab
Is it from ivory towers?
    F               F/D
Is it just a fable
       Eb                   Eb/D
We’re singing to the masses?
    Cm
Or are we burning bridges
     Ab
In temple tudor castles

[Bridge]
      Bb              F
And hey, you said yourself
           Cm                          D
There is dignity in breaking down the rules
     F              Bb
And what have we become?
             Cm
Nothing but sailors on the ship of fools

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
   F                      F/D
So are we turning corners
      Eb                   Eb/D
Or counting down the hours
     F                                F/D
And if we’re throwing sticks and stones
   Ab
Is it from ivory towers?
    F               F/D
Is it just a fable
       Eb                   Eb/D
We’re singing to the masses?
    Cm
Or are we burning bridges
     Ab
In temple tudor castles
