Tower Song

Capo on 4 
 
 
C  Em               Dm     F G7 
so close and yet so far away 
G7                     F       C 
and all the things I'd hope to say 
F               Em     Am 
will have to go unsaid today 
F               G7 
perhaps until tomorrow 
C    Em                 Dm        F  G7 
your fears have built a wall between 
G7                     F      C 
our lives and all that loving means 
F                 Em      Am 
will have to go unfelt it seems 
F            G 
leaving only sorrow 

F                    G          Em 
You built your tower strong and tall 
F                  G           C 
Can't you see it's got to fall someday 
 
 
you close your eyes and speak to me 
of faith and love and destiny 
as distant as eternity 
from truth and understanding 
the wind blows cold outside your door 
it whispers words I've tried before 
but you don't hear me anymore 
you're pride's just too demanding 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
the end is coming soon it's plain 
a warm bed just ain't worth the pain 
and I will go and you'll remain 
with bitterness we've tasted 
a mother's breast a new born child 
a poet's tears a drunken smile 
i can't help thinking all the while 
their meaning won't be wasted 
 
Repeat Chorus
