	  verse 1 
Bbm7             Eb            Ab 
Once there were trees full of birds. 
Bbm7        C7           Fm 
Meadowlands vibrant with flowers. 
Bbm7          Eb         Ab            Db 
Carefree the songs our children once sang 
Bbm7        Bdim        C/F C 
Gilding our minutes and hours 


Bbm7             Eb         Ab 
Clouds came and covered the sun, 
     Bb          C7      Fm 
The breath of the baleful unease 
Bbm7        Eb   Ab               Db 
Turning to ashes flowers in their fields 
Bb           Bdim           Dm11 C 
Silenced the birds in their trees. 

Chorus 
Fm        Bbm     Eb       Ab 
Hidden so deep in veils of deceit, 
Db            Bbm       Dm11 
Imprisoned in twisting spells 
C          Fm           Bbm         Eb         Ab 
Are we the plaything of fiends, or merely the dreams 
     Db     Bbm7    Eb         C7      Fm 
That we're telling ourselves, telling ourselves?

verse 2 
Bbm7            Eb           Ab 
Strive till the phantoms are broken, 
B7             C7        Fm 
Fight till the battle is done; 
    Bbm7         Eb           Ab          Db 
The squadrons of night, Can't conquer the day 
Bbm7          Bdim         Dm11 C 
Nor shadows extinguish the sun. 

Chorus 2 
Fm         Bbm     Eb        Ab 
Stories of danger, fearless attack, 
Db          Bbm        Dm11 
Specters of plague and pain. 
C            Fm            Bbm    Eb          Ab 
All of these ghosts of our own delusions come back 
     Db       Bbm7    Eb    C7      Fm 
And we'll be haunted again, haunted again. 

Bridge 
    Fm                 Bbm      Eb 
For tho the storms are over and past, 
           Eb/C                         Fm 
Though the thunder's rage is quieted at last 
Bbm                           Eb/C        C             Fm 
Well this nightmare's laid me down in the rags here to mourn, 
         Ab 
Here to mourn. 
    Fm                Bbm           Eb 
The night has left us crippled with grief 
      Cm             Fm      Fm 
As we strive to keep alive our belief, 
      Bbm                              Bbm            C 
But a loss so great, it clouds all our hopes for the dawn 

Fm        Bbm     Eb       Ab 
Hidden so deep in veils of deceit, 
Db            Bbm       Dm11 
Imprisoned in twisting spells 
C          Fm           Bbm         Eb         Ab 
Are we the plaything of fiends, or merely the dreams 
     Db     Bbm7    Eb 
That we're telling ourselves 

C7          Fm         Bbm     Eb        Ab 
Telling our Stories of danger, fearless attack, 
Db          Bbm        Dm11 
Specters of plague and pain. 
C            Fm            Bbm    Eb          Ab 
All of these ghosts of our own delusions come back 
     Db       Bbm7      Eb   C7         Fm 
Have we been fighting in vain? fighting in vain?
