Tripod - Ivory tower

^EmI was made in ^B7darkest night of ^Cchalky ash and ^Amchildren's fright ^EmI do not think you k^B7now what you beh^Emold I was made of a^B7ching hurt of f^Cairy tales and bl^Amoody dirt ^EmI hope you do ex^B7actly as you're t^Emold

^CSiegfried and Saint George, ^EmPotter, Baggins, Beowulf ^CWere tempered in my forge, ^B7So I say to you and yours:

^AmAll caught fire in the ^Emivory tower In the m^Amarble arches in the d^Gust and darkness And I ^Amhave you, you're ^B7on my m^Emind

^EmOnce a mighty ^B7tree was grown, f^Cor you to know ^Amall that is known ^EmI hope you hear exa^B7ctly what I ^Emsay And by your sword a b^B7ranch came down, and w^Chere the blood fell t^Amo the ground ^EmIt is my cradle and ^B7there I must ^Emstay

^CAnd should ever you return, ^Emwell I must confess my story ^CTo be true, you will be burned, and I ^B7hope that you have learned

^AmAll caught fire in the ^Emivory tower ^AmIn the marble arches in the ^Gdust and darkness ^AmAnd all caught fire in the ^Emivory tower ^AmAnd I have you, ^B7you're on my mind ^Am You're ^B7on my mind ^{Am B7}You're on my mind ^Em
