Verse sequence:
Am Dm Am E Am.Riff
Nicky my child he stands there with the wind in his hair
Am Dm Am E Am.Riff
Wondering whether the water the wind or the where
Am Dm Am E Am.Riff
I fear that someday he might ask me if mine is to blame
Am Dm Am E Am.Riff
And I've got no reply save to tell him it's all just a game

My age and my time, the bloodfire wine and rhyme
That Afills my dream, reDminds me of an Aatom
In a Ebubble on a Awave
That held it's Dbreath for one sweet Asecond
Then was Epopped and disapApeared
Into fruDitful futiliAty, meaningEless meaAning
MeaningEless meaAning, meaningEless meanAsus4ing A
D Under the Atoadstool loverD down by the Adream

And there's a Dmirror that I'm lookin' straight through
And I Aget it Asus4 A
And there's a Ddoorway that I'm ducking into
To forEget it
But Dflashin' Adoors beEyond the Asky
The Dshattering Emidnight Agathers
D And reminAding me beEhind my Ahind
The Dearthquake the Esunflakes Aflutter
The Dbroken Acoach and the Erags apAproach
And the Dwind is devEouring the DashAes
