Ivory Tower Acordes

	   
Em            B7               C              Am 
I was made in darkest night of chalky ash and children's fright 
Em                  B7              Em 
I do not think you know what you behold 
               B7             C                Am 
I was made of aching hurt of fairy tales and bloody dirt 
Em              B7               Em 
I hope you do exactly as you're told 

 
C                           Em 
Siegfried and Saint George, Potter, Baggins, Beowulf 
C                          B7 
Were tempered in my forge, So I say to you and yours: 

 
Am                     Em 
All caught fire in the ivory tower 
        Am                   G 
In the marble arches in the dust and darkness 
      Am               B7     Em 
And I have you, you're on my mind 

 
Em            B7               C              Am 
Once a mighty tree was grown, for you to know all that is known 
Em                 B7          Em 
I hope you hear exactly what I say 
                     B7                    C                    Am 
And by your sword a branch came down, and where the blood fell to the ground 
Em                  B7           Em 
It is my cradle and there I must stay 

 
C                           Em 
And should ever you return, well I must confess my story 
C                                     B7 
To be true, you will be burned, and I hope that you have learned 

 
Am                     Em 
All caught fire in the ivory tower 
Am                          G 
In the marble arches in the dust and darkness 
Am                         Em 
And all caught fire in the ivory tower 
Am              B7                 Am 
And I have you, you're on my mind 
       B7          Am 
You're on my mind 
B7                Em 
You're on my mind
