Genesis


Tom: Em

Gm               C
Came the night a mist dissolved the trees
Cm         G            A                      Am Eb G
And in the broken light colours fly, fading by
G                C
Pale and cold as figures fill the glade
Cm          G              A                       G C G
Grey is the web they spin, on and on, and on and on
G           Gm          Cm             Gm
Through the flame still summer lingers on
Gm                       Eb  A
Though her pictures soon shatter

[Chorus]
G    D
All, always the same
          Bm             D
But there appears in the shades of dawning
Em          G
Though your eyes are dim
N.C.                 D
All of the pieces in the sky

[Verse 2]
Gm               C
There was once a harvest in this land
Cm            G              A                    Am Eb G
Reap from the turquoise sky, harlequin, harlequin
G                    C
Dancing round, three children fill the glade
Cm             G               A                               G C G
Theirs was the laughter in the winding stream, and in between
G          Gm        Cm            Gm
Close your door, the picture fades again
Gm                    Eb   A
From the flames in the firelight


[Chorus]
G    D
All, always the same
          Bm             D
But there appears in the shades of dawning
Em          G
Though your eyes are dim
N.C.                 D
All of the pieces in the sky

G    D
All, all is not lost
          Bm             D
And light appears in the shades of dawning
Em        G
When your eyes can see
N.C.                  D
Order the pieces, put them back, put them back
