Intro
C F C Am
C F G

C F C Am
C G C

C
As your soul drifts from the plate
F C
To the floor where she is standing
C
Rising by the fire
G
From the torch you were burning
C
Many years but many tears
F C
And many more will soon be arriving

But i drink this final drop
F G C
To enter your front door


G
Gone are the days
F C
When I poured from the rain
G
Where once once marched a man
F G
Going down life's drain
C F
Oh in time in time you will see
C Am
Just what you mean to me
C G F C
For I have let an angel clip my wings


C
Come back young volunteer
F C
For your war now it is over

Lay down your blackened gun
G
Not another bad word spoken
C
Come tell of all you've seen
F C
To the soul you're no longer killing

And rest your weary voice
F G C
The last battle song has cried


G
Gone are the days
F C
When I poured from the rain
G
Where once once marched a man
F G
Going down life's drain
C F
Oh in time in time you will see
C Am
Just what you mean to me
C F G C
For I have let an angel clip my wings

F
Oh an angel clipped my wings
C
From the back of a broken dream
F G
So no ground need ever break my fall again
C F C Am
For i return to sing this tune
F G C
From the back of a broken dream


F G
Time wont hurry back
C Am
Time wont stall
F G
Time to forget the past
C G
Brush the cobwebs from the wall
C F C Am
Oh for I survived to sing this tune
F G C
From the back of a broken dream

F
For an angel clipped my wings
C
From the back of a broken dream
C G
So no ground need ever break my fall again
C F C Am
For i return to sing this tune
F G C
From the back of a broken dream


C F C Am
For i return to sing this tune
F G C
From the back of a broken dream
