[Eb] [Gm] [Fm] [Ab] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb]
[Gm] [Fm] [Ab] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] So [Gm]
close and [D] yet so far [Ab] [Bb] away And all the [Eb] things that [Ab] I [Eb] like
Will [Ab]
have to go [Gm] [Cm] unsaid today [Ab]
Perhaps [Eb] until [Bb] your [Eb]
[Gm] fears have built [Fm] a [Ab] wall
Between [Gm] [Bb] our [Db] lives and all [Cm] that love [Eb] and me [Ab] Will have to [Gm] go unfelt [C] it seems
[Ab]
Leaving home [Bb] so far [Gm] [Ab]
away You built [Bb] your tower [F] strong [G] and tall
[Ab] Can't you see [Bb] it's got to fall [Eb] someday [Gm] [Fm] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] So [Gm] close your [Fm] eyes and speak to [Cm] me
[Bb] Of faith and love [Ab] and [Eb] destiny
[Ab]
[C] It's as distant [Gm] as [Cm] eternity
[Ab] To truth and [Bb] understanding Now [Eb]
[Gm] the wind blows [Ab] cold outside your door
[Bb] Oh and it whispers [Ab] words I've [Eb] tried before [Ab]
And you don't hear [Gm] me [C] anymore
[Ab]
Cause your [C] pride got [Gm] to [Bb] demand it You [Ab]
built your [Bb] tower [Gm] strong and [Ab]
tall
Can't you see [Bb] it's got to pause [Eb]
[Gm] [Fm] [Ab] [Bb]
[Eb] [Gm] Now the end is [F] coming [Ab] soon it's fine
A [Gm] warm [Ab] bed just ain't worth [Eb] the pain [Ab] So I will go [Gm] and [Cm] you'll remain
So close your eyes and speak to me [Ab] Of faith and love and destiny
With the bitterness [Bb] we tasted
[Eb] Now [Gm] I'm on this [Fm] breast [Eb] and a [Ab] newborn [Bb] child A poet's tears [Ab] and a drunken [Eb] smile
[Ab] I can't help [Bb] thinking [Gm] all [F] the while [Ab] That their meaning [Gm] won't [Bb] be wasted
You [Ab]
built your [Bb] tower [Gm] strong and tall [Ab]
Can't you [C] see [Bb] it's got to [Eb] fall
