Intro:

Am C/G Em Am x2


Verse 1:
 
 Am                  C/G
 I awoke troubled by awful sounds
  Am                              C/G
 Where the sky was dim and cities shining
                             Fmaj7/C
 One by one we're turning the old statue
 Am                            C/G
 Now I have seen all they have offered me
 Am                           C/G
 And all my words will simply die
                              Fmaj7/C
 One by one, we're turning the old statue

 Am C/G Em Am Am C/G Em


Chorus:

  Fmaj7/C
 Oh the leaves of the grass

 Death beneath our feet
  Em
 has now given way there in the land mass
 Dm                 Em7               Fmaj7
 inhabits the earth many long years of wondering

 Oh the water will part clear us of this mess
  Em
 Restore our good name grace us at our death
    Dm                Em7
 And rise from above, suddenly you feel in the air

 Am C/G Em Am Am C/G Em
 
 Am C/G Em Am-Em-Am
 Ahh


Verse 2:

 Am                    C/G
 Wake inside and of the years you tried
   Am                           C/G
 If my mind relents then I will hide
                             Fmaj7/C
 One by one, we're turning to old statues 

 Am C/G Em Am Am C/G Em


Chorus:

  Fmaj7/C
 Oh the leaves of the grass

 Death beneath our feet
  Em
 has now given way there in the land mass
 Dm                 Em7               Fmaj7/C
 inhabits the earth many long years of wondering

 Oh the water will part clear us of this mess
  Em
 Restore our good name grace us at our death
    Dm                Em7
 And rise from above, suddenly you feel in the air
 
Outro: 

 Am C/G Em Am-Em-Am
