Tune: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Devastation at last finally we meet
After all of these years out here in the street
I had a feeling you would make yourself known
You came along just to claim your place on the throne
Now I have been overthrown, overthrown
And I thought If I told the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
Devastation my door was left open wide
You brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride
I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts
I made a not to myself, I merely forgot
Now I am overwrought, I'm overwrought
And I thought If I told the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
And I thought If I told the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
One day this ground will break
and open up for me I hope it will I hope it will
(solo see below)
Salutations at last, I'm down on my knees
I hear the bugle this morn blast Revile
Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm
All my sails were ablaze, I was chained to helm
Now I am overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed
And I thought If I told the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
And I thought If I told the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
Solo: (half step flat also)
