[Am]Watch that old [C]fire as it [G]flickers and [Am]dies
|
||
|
|
That [C]once blessed the [G]household and [D]lit up our lives
|
||
|
|
It [C]shone for the [G]friends and the [D]clinking of [Am]glasses
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Am]Capture the [C]wild things and [G]bring them in [Am]line
|
||
|
|
And [C]own what was [G]never your [D]right to confine
|
||
|
|
The [C]lives and the [G]loves and the [D]songs are what [Am]matters
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Am]Do you feel [C]heavy? Your [G]eyes drop with [Am]grief
|
||
|
|
Your [C]spirit is [G]wild and your [D]suffering is brief
|
||
|
|
So [C]never you [G]buckle and [D]bend to the [Am]masses
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Am]Get round the [C]fire with a [G]glass of strong [Am]ale
|
||
|
|
And [C]tell us a [G]story from [D]beyond the pale
|
||
|
|
[C]Bury some [G]seeds and [D]expect some strong [Am]branches
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now [Am]show me a [C]man that can [G]meet all his [Am]needs
|
||
|
|
For [C]what we need [G]most now is [D]unity's seed
|
||
|
|
A [C]common old [G]song for all [D]creeds and all [Am]classes
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Am]What will we [C]do when the [G]world it is [Am]ending
|
||
|
|
And [C]time it is [G]halted for [D]friend and for foe?
|
||
|
|
[C]Try to hold [G]on to the [D]time as it [Am]passes
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
|
||
|
|
I'll [Am]tend to the [C]flame, you can [G]worship the [Am]ashes
