[Intro]
F#m D F#m D
F#m E Bm D
[Verse 1]
F#mI lay in the forest amongst the butterfliDes and the fireflies
And the burning horses and the flaming F#mtrees
As a spiral of children Dclimb up to the sun
Waving goodbye to you and F#mgoodbye to me
As the past pulls away and the Efuture begins
I say goodbye to all Bmthat as the future rolls iDn
Like a wave, like a wave E
And the past, with its savage undertowF#m, lets go
[Bridge]
D E F#m
[Chorus]
DCome on, everyone, come Eon, everyone
F#mA spiral of children climbs up to the sun
DTo the sun, to the sun, Eand on each golden rung
F#mA spiral of children climbs up to the sun D E F#m
[Verse 2]
And a man called Jesus, He Dpromised He would leave us
With a word that would light up the F#mnight, oh, the night
But the stars hang from Dthreads and blink off one by one
And it isn't any funF#m, no, it isn't any fun
To be standing here Ealone with nowhere to be
With a man mad with Bmgrief and on each side a thief
DAnd everybody hanging from a tree, from a Etree
And everybody hanging F#mfrom a tree
[Chorus]
DCome on, everyone, come Eon, everyone
F#mA spiral of children climbs up to the sun
DTo the sun, to the sun, Etaking everyone
F#mA spiral of children climbs up to the sun
[Bridge]
D E F#m x2
[Verse 3]
There is nothing more Dvaluable than beauty, they say
There is nothing more valuable than love F#m
And I lie amongst the leaves and the burning Dtrees
And the fields of smoke and the black butterF#mflies
And the screaming horses and your Ebright green eyes, so beautiful
Oh, your Bmbright green eyes, so beautifDulE F#m
