[G]
[Dm] O seekers of spring, how could you not find contentment in the time of riddling reasons
in this land of the blind?
By the joke of fate alone it's sure that as the loved hand leaves you, you clutch [Am] for
the [F] slipstream the [Am] realness to find.
[Dm]
[Am] [Dm]
But do what you like, do what you like, do what you like, do what you like, do what you [Bm] like.
Do what you [G] can, do what you can, [Dm] [C] live till you
[F] die, my [D] poor little [Dm] man.
[D] [Dm] For Jesus [Em] will stretch [G] out his hand no
[C] more.
But in the south is [Am] many a [C] waving tree.
Oh, that musky thing does move your pain.
In the [Em] warm south winds [C] the lost flowers bloom.
[G] And if you cried, [B] [D] you know you'd fill a lake with [G]
tears.
[D] Still wouldn't turn back the years [Cm] since [C] the [B] city has [Bb] [A] took you.
[D] Mad Hatter's on [F] my [D]
mind.
[Am] [G] So sad, [D] sad to see the [Bm] way [G] it grew.
[D] Those of the people
[Db] that [D] I knew that [Am] have [B] either [Bb] fell or [A] faltered.
[D] Mad Hatter's on my mind.
And you [G] must have to see [F] clear [A] sometimes.
[Dm] [D]
[Dm]
Prometheus, the problem [F] child still juggling with [C] his brains.
[G] Gives his [Dm] limping leopard's visions to [F] the miser in his [C] veins.
[G] Within [Dm] the ruined factor is [F] the normal so [C] insane.
[Bb] As he sets [C] the sky [Bb] beneath [C] his heel [Bb] and lends [C] away the pain.
[G] [D]
[Gm] But I am [Am] the archer, the [C] lover of laughter.
And [G] mine is the arrowed flight.
I am the [Am] archer [C] and my eyes yearn after [G] the unsullied sight.
[Gm] Born of [Dm] the dark waters of the daughters of night.
[C] Dancing [F] without movement after the clear
[C] light.
[Bm] [Am] [Dm]
[D] [A] Oh Peridion, [D] fate be [C] kind.
[F] In [Dbm] the rumbling and trundling [F] rickshaw of time.
Hooked by [Bb] the heart to [G] the [A] king, Fisher's [Eb] line.
[E]
I will set my [F] one eye for the shores [D] of the blind.
