Pompeii Lyrics & Tabs by Legend

Pompeii

guitar chords lyrics

Legend

he day the sky collapsed on you, to bury you in ash
A tomb of burning lava with a thousand years to pass
Your legacy of wonders, your culture so advanced

No time to stop and wonder, you didn't have a chance
Your gods that day deserted you, the fifth became the last
Your faith was just a vapour, within your lava cast
Who's secrets still lie buried, so deep within your womb
The columns and the statues stand silent in the light
No voices fill the market place, no laughter in the night
The children so long sleeping, such tender ghosts to dream
And creeping through the silence, the echoes of your scream
