Some of them were dreamers,
[D] some of [A] them were fools, who [F#m] were making plans [D] and thinking
[A] of the future.
And with the energy of the innocent, they [D] were [A] gathering the tools they [F#m] would need to
[A] make their journey back to nature.
And [F#] while the sand slipped through [A] the opening, [D] and their hands reached [A] for the golden ring,
with their [F#m] hearts they turned [A] to each other's [E] hearts for refuge.
[F#m] In the troubled years that [A] came before the deluge.

[A] Some of them knew pleasure,
[D] some of [A] them knew pain, and [F#m] for some of them it [D] was only the
[A] moment that mattered.
And on the graven crazy wings of youth, they [D] went flying [A] around in the rain.
And [F#m] their feathers, once [D] so fine, grew [A] torn and tattered.
And [F#m] in the end they treated [A] their tired wings [D] for the resignation [A] that living brings.
[F#m] And exchanged love's [D] bright and fragile glow [E] for the glitter and the rouge.
And [F#m] in the moment they were [D] swept before [A] the deluge.
Now let the music keep our spirits [D] high.

[D] Some
[A] of them were angry [D] at the way the earth [A] was abused by the men who [F#] learned how to [D] forge
her beauty [A] into power.
Then they struggled to protect her from them, [D] only to be [A] confused by [F#m] the magnitude [D] of her
fury in the [A] final hour.
And [F#m] when the sand was [A] gone and the time arrived, [D] in the naked dawn [A] only a few survived.
[F#m] And in attempts to [D] understand the things [E] so simple and so huge, [F#m] believe that they were
meant [D] to live after [A] the deluge.
