Speaking a Dead Language - Joy Williams
C We built a taGll, tall tAmower F
C Towards the sGun, towards the sAmun F
C Took some woGrds and built a wAmall F
C And called it lGove, called it lAmove F
Dm Somewhere in all the tAmalkiGng,Dm the meaning faded Amout
COh, I Gwonder Amwhen did it all stop making sense?
CI don't GunderstAmand F
CI reGmember, Amwe were so sure, so innocent
COh, but Gthat was tAmhen
Can we ever go bCacGk aAmgain?
Can we ever go bCacGk?Am F
You're speaking a dead, dead language
You don't sound like yourself
I hope it's just lost in translation
So why don't you show, don't try to tell
Brick by brick, we started crumbling
Will I find you when it falls?
Oh, I wonder when did it all stop making sense?
I don't understand
I remember, we were so sure, so innocent
Oh, but that was then
Can we ever go baDck? Bm G D Em A
BDon't Emhold Bmyour breath
GLook aDround
Try to Emadd it Aup, Bpin it Emdown
But you Ccan't C G F
Oh, I wonder when did it all stop making sense?
I don't understand
I remember, we were so sure, so innocent
Oh, but that was then
Can we ever go back again?
Can we ever go bCacGk?Am
