Verse 1:
   G      D            G        D
Joshua smiled, said listen to reason, 
  G         D            Em           C       G  (leads into intro)
Don't blame me when the walls come tumbling down.

   G        D           G        D
So I was adrift on the sea of longing,
    G           D         Em          C    G   (leads into intro) 
awaiting the trumpets to raise your ivory gown.


Chorus:
       Em C   C    D    G 
And if on-ly time will tell,
         C
Then I can't stand waiting
            C                    Em
While the lights are changing on me.
 C             C    D    G
Tell it to my own free will.
      Bm                      Em
If I lost this thorn from my side,
             D
I think I'd die.


(repeat intro)


Verse 2: (same as Verse 1 in terms of chords)
Albert Camus said, "living is anguish,
but don't dare let those bastards bring you down."

And if this is so, then I see no reason 
for spending the evening doing anything but going downtown.


Chorus:
       Em C   C    D    G 
And if on-ly time will tell,
         C
Then I can't stand waiting
            C                    Em
While the lights are changing on me.
 C             C    D    G
Tell it to my own free will.
      Bm                      Em
If I lost this thorn from my side,
             D
I'd probably I'd die,
             D
Most likely die,
            D
I think I'd die.
