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

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


Chorus:
       Am F   F    G    F 
And if on-ly time will tell,
         F
Then I can't stand waiting
            F                    Am
While the lights are changing on me.
 F             F    G    F
Tell it to my own free will.
      Em                      Am
If I lost this thorn from my side,
             G
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 weigh you down."

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


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


(repeat intro and end on G)


Enjoy! =)
